Indeed... computers are supposed to be *repeatable*. When you say "programmed my own mailfilter", can you give us more details? Is it perhaps file contention? As in, when you read in the file that it's erroring on, is there perhaps another process that has that file locked? I have a secondary mail server but hes just buffering the mails and then redelivering to the primary, no spam checks or anything there, but i turned it off to find more easy debugging environment. I just noticed something else - your email encoding. Is there a windows server in the loop? - Bill Yerazunis |
