Rob,

Have you measured this? Thing is, if you use the SpamAssassin result
cache (SQLite thing) the overhead of split/recipient messages (which I
assume you are talking about) is rather marginal... Only the cost of
the digest+database lookup/"extra" message...

If you want to skip SpamAssassin, do that with a ruleset (as usual) on
"Use SpamAssassin" in MailScanner.conf, or on "Spam Checks"... The
latter disables a few things more than SA.

Or am I reading you wrong?
Cheers
