It is correct, and works nice, but it is not my problem. Really, I already run fetchmail with --limit option. The problem is sendmail, that queue outgoing mail. I need to queue all mail and send at daytime only mail smaller than some limit. It is vital to deliver small messages fast - really, it is office configuration, not home. At home I can deliver mail only at night without limits. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
