[Mimedefang] Poll: Who uses the "filter_tick" and "map" functionality of MIMEDefang? (-X and -N options to mimedefang-multiplexor)

[Paul Murphy]

I use filter_tick on very small servers to keep a database connection alive (<200 messages per day, and overnight 3-4 hours can pass without a message), but if it wasn't there then I'd code filter_begin to check on the state and reconnect if necessary, or make a new connection every time.

Best Wishes,

Paul.
