Which are reasons for rationing mail use. Staff time is too valuable for
them to be babysitting the mail queue.

When I'm monitoring the mail flow, generally I'm working on soemthing else,
and checking on things every fifteen minutes or half hour. It does keep me
awake longer than I'd like to be kept awake at times, though.

5:15pm up 1 day, 18:41, 57 users, load average: 32.92, 30.80, 28.93
Not only that, but it timed out on me while I was waiting for activity.

Re 227: Rane, actually setting up some kind of mail rationing scheme would
be a lot more extra work than occasionally needing to babysit the mail queue
after a system crash.

I thought computers could do anything - especialy allocating resources - and
certainly babysitting... ;->

Yep, with enough programming, computers can do anything. But some tasks take
a lot more programming than others.
