10? I hope to hell its on a 15 yo 5400 rpm ide

thats only 8 msgs a second, we easily do more than that on dual xeon 2 
gig ram with qmail and qmailscan and the load avgs constant 2-2.5

looks like i wont be trying to intergrate MS with our qmail servers, 
prolly a good idea since nobody has clear intructions on how to 
install with qmail anyway

Still happy to use it on our sendmail boxes tho :)
