PT>If your using pcboardm toss your mail and if you got more then 1
PT>megabyte of outgoing mail how long is it taking to proccess it?

A few seconds.  It depends upon the number of messages and the size of 
the message base.  This is as long as the PC I run it on has the files 
stored on a local drive, not a network drive.  I have a Windows 2000 
server that holds all of PCBoard's files and message base.  I run 
tossing jobs on the server.  They run very quick there.  Once in awhile 
I will kick the batch jpb off manually from a workstation and then 
tossing occurs across the network.  That takes longer on some echoes 
with very large message bases, where I keep a year's worth of messages. 
How long are you keeping your messages and do you run a regular job to 
purge them down to something manageable ?
