The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Mail Gateway to SMTP, version 3.0

SUMMARY

Version 3.0 of the Microsoft Mail Gateway to SMTP displays the memory available to the log file or the Gateway PC screen in the following line:

   Idling: 48452 bytes, largest 47428

This means that, in conventional memory, after the Gateway has loaded, there are 48452 bytes available, and the largest contiguous space is 47428 bytes. These numbers vary depending on whether the TCP/IP and networking software are loaded high.

NOTE: SMTPGATE.EXE must be executed with a -Cd parameter.

MORE INFORMATION

The Gateway code determines the memory available by calling two C library routines:

_MEMAVL    for the available memory
_MEMMAX    for the largest contiguous space.
