Hello Eric

Monitor  Imail  with  ServersAlive  (Free  for  up  to  10  services)
http://www.serversalive.de
Serversalvie  can monitor the SMTP connections (and with a free plugin
it  can also do a complete mail roundtrip (ASSP->SMTP->pop3) check) and
restart  stalled  imail  services (much better than imonitor) with net
start.

>> Subject: [IMail Forum] Imail refusing connections from certain IP

>> Hi!

>> I'm running an antispam-proxy (ASSP) in front of our ageing Imail 8.05 
>> server. It has worked fine for some time, but recently, Imail randomly 
>> decides to refuse all connections from the proxy. I've tried telneting 
>> directly to Imail from the proxy, but the connection is immediately
> refused.


>> Restarting the Imail SMTP service solves the problem (at least for a
> while).

>> Changing the proxy's IP address also immediately solves the problem, 
>> until it's changed back.


>> This leads me to believe that Imail somehow blacklists the proxy's IP, 
>> maybe due to heavy traffic from it? Does anyone have any idea where to 
>> look for such a non-persistent blacklist/block/ban?

>> Imail's log files doesn't even mention the connection attempts, so I'm 
>> stumped..


>> Best regards,
>> Eric Carr
