Hi All

I would like to add to this issue since upgrading to the latest version
1.2.5(2) version I'm having to restart or wait until assp starts working
again.

My platform is a linux using a current version of active perl.

I also had an issue today where some remote email address from
particular ip addresses would get dropped as soon as the connection was
made. A restart fixed this issue.
