if both debugs take so long please post your outout.  if your users are strangling your bandwidth through HTTP then that needs to be looked at aswell through policy.

That you should comment it out in the v310.pre file too;-) 
Then restart MS (with SA) and see if that cures it. 


DONE!!.. I restarted now.. let see now :-) .. two questions, which is the difference in init.pre, v310.pre, v310.pre and v320.pre files? What is ASN? thanks a lot glenn..:-)

If you run "MailScanner --debug --debug-sa", or just a normal 
"spamassassin -D -t </path/to/some/test/message", do you see any ... 
very noticeable ... "pauses"? And if so, where? 

Well, I ran MailScanner --debug --debug-sa and I see no errors.. BUT it takes so long.. I mean several minutes (20 or 30 minutes) :-(
