I'm sure you can appreciate why. On average, utgpu handles ~3000 message a day. One evening I decided to poke through the logs to see what the traffic pattern was. I was surprised to see that for that particular day, only 20% of the traffic was either to or from a UofT mailbox, the rest was gatewayed mail. Naturally that covered only a single 24 hour period, but the discovery was interesting nonetheless. Tom Molnar -- Tom Molnar Unix Systems Group, University of Toronto Computing Services.
