Re: Bypass large files with filter

2006-01-30 10:23:17
Michelle,

The problem isn't small files, but the server specs are CPU - 2.4Ghz Intel with 
512meg..
small messages rip through my procmailrc's, it's big files that are the 
problem.  Messages
of 2+ meg take hours to get through.  I've sorted it with the help of folks 
here with the
following as the first rule /etc/procmailrc

:0
* > 500000
{ SWITCHRC }


Thanks for the help folks!!

My /etc/procmailrc is currently more then 45,000 lines long.. small
messages fly through but big messages with
attachemtns can literally take hours to filter through all the rules.


What for CPU/Mempory do you use?

I have a realy heavy procmailrc with arround 2200 Lines and
it take around 2.8 seconds on a Sempron 2200+ with 256 MB of
memory to pass a message of 7 kByte through...
