No Limits that I  know of, except maybe for the maximum number of rules allowed.
What version are you using.

Replacing design usually does not do any damage.

I hope this helps !
What error message do you get? Is the mail rule still in place?

With better info we can give better advice... :)

now is there a way to increase this limit?

thanks

HAve you checked the IBM site tech  and support library ?

Is this version dependent ?

I hope this helps !
I went through Google and found nothing that's anywhere similar to your message.

When do you get the message? What database are you in, and what actions do you do?
Are there errors in the server's log.nsf database?
I don't believe you can change the limit.  I personally don't use this function, since spammers tend not to use the same address twice.  As your list grows, you will also notice a performance hit (refresh time) as incoming mail has to be compared against the ever-increasing list.
Is this on a server or a client ?

I would add server filtering if needed.

ALso, since spammers rarely use the same address twice, regular blacklists are  not feasible.

If server based, check out some of the blacklist databases you can add into R 6 and above to help out.

I hope this helps !
OK.
How can I export these blacklist files from the CLIENT machine. There are thousands of spam addresses in the list and I cannot export or copy and past it to any kind of Excel or other files in order to pass them to teh server.

thanks in advance
