This is turning into a big problem. I am falling further and further behind getting these messages to go out. It's weird that the numbers aren't all that great, really. There's about 400 messages queued on the originating system, generated over the past hour or so. I've tried restarting Surgemail to see if that would wake it up with the settings I changed, but it's still taking 5-10 seconds per message. Is there any way to see who is being tarpitted and why?

I've set g_safe_white and also g_spam_allow to the ip address of the sending machine. I think it's going a bit faster than before, but it still doesn't seem right. I also see a setting called g_bomb_white, but it says to enter an "address" with no indication if they mean email addresses or ip addresses. g_bomb_white - don't apply bomb_max limit if to address matches Useful for robots etc that expect high volume Syntax: g_bomb_white string Bob Fera I.T.

How can I get it to stop? (I need to get these emails out quickly...) I can't find a setting that looks like it does what I need. Thanks, Bob -- Bob Fera I.T.
