MailScanner 4.58

Hash: SHA1

4.57.1-1 is up on the web site now. Has a new setting "Max Spam Check 
Size". Messages bigger than this are assumed to not be spam. This 
significantly speeds up spam checking. Spammers cannot afford to send 
huge messages, they want to use their bandwidth sending more smaller 
messages as it pays better.

Default limit is 150k, which apparently is a very safe figure for this test.

Please can you let me know your experience with this. It should make 
testing large messages a lot faster, as large messages take a long time 
to process with SpamAssassin.

I am about to upgrade my test server to see what happens to the load 
average on it (currently about 8 - 10 with pretty small message 
batches). It doesn't start to sweat until the load average gets over 16 
as it has roughly that many threads in the CPUs (quad-CPU, dual-core, 
hyperthreading).

Regards,
Jules.
