1) Keep it simple 2) If it ain't broke, don't fix it > I was just trying to point out that if you're handling a fairly large > amount of e-mail and from Postfix are calling wrapper+spamc+running > spamd+deliver chances are you wouldn't be that happy. ;) Well as I said in the original post, I'm really a tourist on this list... my cyrus install only has to deal with 5-10 accounts. I personally have never had any problems with deliver but you and others come out quite heavily against it. So as a matter of intrest what would you recomend to replace my current script setup? I say script setup because I don't want to run multiple instances of postfix on that machine.... so in essance I can't really use the content filters. I also want to have per user configs. I had a bit of a look around and found things like spampd (http://www.wdg.us/Content/rd/mta/spampd/spampd.html) but they don't appear to do per user settings (Kendrick Vargas mentioned hacking it but that's a seperate issue). Is there anything around you know of that's a drop in replacement? Nick
