A mail filter device allowing processing time to be reduce is provided. The SMTP processor relays commands and responses exchanged between SMTP client and SMTP server and performs content check during message relaying. TCP / IP terminations share header information through a connection manager, keeping TCP / IP header information identical both between the SMTP client and the mail filter device and between the mail filter device and the SMTP server. When the content check determines that the electronic mail is relayed without discarding its message, the SMTP processor transfers a response to the SMTP client when the SMTP server has completed relay processing.

One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that solves a global optimization problem specified by a function ƒ and a set of equality constraints qi(x)=0 (i=1, . . . , r), wherein ƒ is a scalar function of a vector x=(x1, x2, x3, . . . xn). During operation, the system receives a representation of the function ƒ and the set of equality constraints and stores the representation in a memory. Next, the system performs an interval equality constrained global optimization process to compute guaranteed bounds on a globally minimum value of the function ƒ(x) subject to the set of equality constraints. During this process, the system applies term consistency to a set of relations associated with the interval equality constrained global optimization problem over a subbox X, and excludes any portion of the subbox X that violates the set of relations. It also applies box consistency to the set of relations, and excludes any portion of the subbox X that violates the set of relations. Finally, the system performs an interval Newton step for the interval equality constrained global optimization problem over the subbox X. The system integrates the sub-parts of the process with branch tests designed to increase the overall speed of the process.
