Hi Terry:

Do you have 5-DISK SCSI configuration for everything?  You mean you have 5
disks that has OS, spool, mailboxes all in one RAID array?

I am not sure if this is the best of configurations.

This is how we have ours:

System:  OS + Applications:  2 SCSI Drives - RAID 0+1 [Mirrored]
Spool:  2 SCIS Drives- RAID 0+1 [Mirrored]
Mailboxes:  5 SCSI drives:  RAID 5

This is working well for us.. I am sure it can be further optimized.. 

Regards,
Kami

Thanks for the info, finally got the command to turn it off should we decide
to do so. We've heard both sides of the issue with PIX and can't find the
definitive answer one-way or the other. What kinds of problems does having
this enabled produce? Our issue is with the enormous build up of the spool
directory.

As far as we can tell it's as if Imail stockpiles email to deliver when it
feels like it dependent on the size of the HDD in use (bigger drive, bigger
spool). We also found that the spool manager would stop functioning at
random. Our server is a 5-disk SCSI array (total 68+GB) on a dual 500+mhz
system with 2GB ram. We were running Imail 8.01 until it got too
troublesome. Now we dropped back to Imail 7.13 on a different server and
it's performing much better. (FYI - the current server displayed the same
symptoms when it was running 8.00 with hot fix 1)

Terry

Terry,
Like others have stated, I don't know exactly what you mean by stable. But,
I notice you still have your PIX's "SMTP fixup protocol" enabled. You *will*
have e-mail problems with this enabled. :-) You should turn this off.
According to the archives, this was recommended to you back on the 26th of
last month.

This is the command:
no fixup protocol smtp 25

HTH,
~Patrick
