I installed the 8.21 patch, the main improvement is the ability to limit the
amount of SMTP connections. I opened a case with Ipswitch yesterday due to a
problem with SMTPD32 that would cause the RAM usage to skyrocket until the
SMTP service failed. It turns out that when a blacklist is unreachable Imail
chokes and the SMTP service fails due to being overrun with SMTP
connections.
The timing of the problem and patch release allowed me to apply the fix and
recreate the problem. The patch definately throttled the SMTP connection
overrun problem but now a steady overuse of the CPU occurrs, which is far
better than the total SMTP service failure. They simply need to timeout the
DNS based RBLs more efficiently. I was told that was added to the request
database.
In my opinion, anyone experiencing the SMTP service failure due to
RAM/Buffer overflow issues should apply this patch.
