I believe you are wrong. When there are too many emails in the inqueue, MS will still check the email contents it will just not check the mails in the order they were received. It will pick the first N mails it sees in the queue whether they just arrived or have been sitting there for some time. Usually MS picks the oldest mails first.

What is happening is your queue is exceeding the threshold set (800 by default I think) where MailScanner just starts to process the email without scanning it. If your server is getting hit by a surge of email and MailScanner cannot keep up, it stops doing checks.
Of course, I could be wrong. Happens a lot.

You probably hit a timeout somewhere. Can you find out from the logs which component times out?

Gets too high like 5 or 6 that MailScanner marks all messages as spam ? If you have seen this is there something we can change that changes the process ?

Thank you
