<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Hello all.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>I was glad to see that the processing db
feature to prevent mails which would crash mailscanner or one of its module was
added in the version from topic.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>However after having run this beta for
about 2 weeks, I got massive problems in contrast to the old version I ran
before that (4.74.16-1)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Before I used to get a problematic mails
which would hold up the queues maybe once every 6 months or so, while very
annoying it did not happen often at all.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>However since I upgraded, I get about 2-6
every day which are placed in the processing queue.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>So on the up side the processing database
is doing precisely what it was made for, preventing MailScanner crashes from
holding up queue’s, as the problem mails are removed after X number of
tries.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>The downside is of course that these mails
are not delivery, and its almost always ham mails, so it’s annoying for
the users.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>It seems from my first look aty the problem
that it seems to be the tnef expanding part that fails. Now I’ve always
used:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Expand TNEF = yes<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Use TNEF Contents = replace<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>TNEF Expander = internal<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Deliver Unparsable TNEF = no<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Which has worked well both in terms of not
crashing and removing those annoying winmail.dat files.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Are these variable values the recommended
values? What are everyone else using?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>And is anybody using the new beta with
success on a faily active system (like at least 1000 mails a day)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
