On the ones that only house a couple hundred email addresses, your setup works flawlessly in our environment. On the boxes with 10k+ email accounts, I do away with all of the filtering stuff, and front-end the Qmail/Vpopmail boxes with third party appliances. From what I can tell, it's the filtering processes that are the bottleneck under heavy load. Take them out of the equation and load is no longer an issue. Just my .02. Steve
