email security / encryption is completely unrelated to the packetfilter reporter.

Well, it's certainly true that there are currently performance issues related to the packetfilter reporter, due to the fact that we're doing a lot of reporting-related operations on every dropped packet. And yes, this is one of the places we're going to work on in the near future.
So I take it 7.006 does not address the DoS vulnerability the pfilter-reporte process causes. If this is the case, I want to know why I was told this issue would be addressed in the next update by support. I also will be dealing with my distributor demanding a refund of this crap and going else where. I have never seen such a disorganized, non-customer committed organization as Astaro. This is a security gateway that is being DoS by its own reporting daemon. This is ridiculous, this should have been escalated as high priority issue, and fixed straight away, instead of adding new features![:@]

Simon can you confirm that 7.006 does not fix the pfilter-reporte exploit? Even with 7.006, it is still chewing 40%-100% CPU utilisation?
