I've been using the new email package to upload my
digital photos to my yahoo email account (what else
can you do with a 2GB limit?), but it's really slow.

Looking in the task manager I see that when I'm using
email (email -s "description" -b -a "filename.jpg"
myemail AT ddress) the vsmon process takes my CPU usage
upto 100%. vsmon is the firewall process for
ZoneAlarm.

Strange. When I email the photo's using outlook
express it doesn't behave like that.

I've tweaked every setting I can think of in ZonaAlarm
to  try to improve the performance (like adding my
SMTP server as a trusted host and lowering my
security) but I've not managed to alter the behaviour
at all.

Has anyone experienced similar problems?

Can anyone hazard a guess as to what ZoneAlarm's
problem is?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Keith
