Hello freinds .
I'm writing a full futured mail server (smtp(s), pop3(s)) with the
possibility of integatation of spamassassin and antivirus + other
usefull controls. so I used : Indy, Zeos, MySQL.
I first begin the project in Delphi7 and it almost finished, so It
works well, mainly speed.
Since to use Delphi you must have a lisence, I decided to switch to
Lazarus that I found a wonderful project 
but :
  1. the previous code (mailserver) compiled under Lazarus/Freepascal
is so slow that the connection losts with clientd. I wonder why ??
  I searched on internet and I found that there is a problems adapting
Indy with Lazarus/Freepascal (Bug in Freepascal (or future not
supported yet in FPC)).

  So What you advise me to do.

 Ah: I know this is not the right place to ask but I will risk: Please
can you tell me how to get a GPL license for my mailserver since I
want to give it as Opensource project .

  Thanks you !!

I can't help with the technical query, but with respect to the GPL
question, if you are the author of all of the code used, then you
issue the license. See http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html.

For all included code, you need to check the license, and work in
accordance with it. This means that different licenses may apply to
different parts of your finished project. You probably do not have to
apply to anyone, unless there is commercial code included.

I'm not aware of such problem. Do you have a reference for that ?

Simply when mailing a message of 1.5MB to the server it take a lot of
time to finally hanging. But the same server compiled under Delphi
works well
I have a 8GB machine, VBOX and Win 7

That is an enormous helicopter view. The only realistic approach is to
upgrade to the most recent version of Indy (of the fulgan ftp), and
retest. If still the problem, debug it.

There are no known problems of the sort, it might be something unique
for your case (and Indy's mail system with its umpteen nested mime
classes is one of the parts I like least)

Hi;
After many test I constat that the speed decrease only when I set
Intercept property of TidSMTPserver to TIdServerInterceptLogEvent.

Thank you!
