Users may not, through a cron job, CGI script, interactive commands, or any other means, initiate the following on our servers:

• Run any process that requires more than 8Mb of memory space.
• Run any program that requires more than 30 CPU seconds.
• Use find anywhere except in their own directories.
• Send out mail to more than 100 addresses in one batch, whether sequentially or in parallel. Such batches must "sleep" for at least three seconds between each delivery attempt.
• Send or receive, through mail, any file larger than 500Kb. This limit, or a similar limit, may be enforced in our software.
• Run their own mailing list software.

Other Information

If we find that you are performing bulk mail runs, regardless of whether it is Spam or not, we will have to deactivate your account and investigate. Please send such mailings through your local ISP's mailserver, or any other mailserver which you are authorized to use. Many such mailservers are configured especially to handle an extremely high volume of mail.
