in reply to Maximum # of concurrent runs

How about spooling the mail, and then processing it after it is spooled? Or do you do rejects inline?

If doing the rejects inline, then I would read up on semaphores.

If you are able to spool it, then you can manage this at your leisure.

    I think that I will make spooling the bulk of the mail and then processing it ever 5 or 10 minutes a job for the NEAR future.

    Thanks for the suggestion. In the meantime I will put a locking mechanism in as a stopgap.

    Thanks
