It's always disappointing to receive something like 'Warning: this server accepts only 1000 shares per client; not all of your shares will be propagated.'
However, one still cannot avoid it when the connection to, say, Razorback 2, is lost and eMule happily snatches some other server IP -- which, quite probably, correspond to a minor server with limited sharebase capabilities.
I am already tired of having to set 'Low' priority by my own hands to those servers in the list that have <1000 or <2000 file limit. This should happen automatically: eMule knows very well how much files I share, so eMule should not connect to a server if that one is unable to handle all the shares.
eMule should automatically set server priority to 'Low' or ban it entirely from being connected in this case. And this decision should be made on the base of already known file limit of the server, without waiting for any additional warning messages from that server.
Thanks in advance.

Actually Xrmb once coded a little something that could be used for this purpose.
Have a look here. The mod is called "pick the best server to connect"

My humble feature request is just not to connect to the worst of servers, that's all. And which are the worst -- it is still a relative criterion, it depends upon the number of shares I am offering.

Great.
So my feature request is asking for the same source code to be added back from mod to the official codebase for the new improved release of eMule...
