Short of installing a new network card / drive ... any other thoughts what to try


It's a long shot - but if it were my server I would try it:


Shut down IMAP.


Temporarily shut down SMTP so that new mail doesn't go in to those boxes.


Remove the mailbox files from all of the users who use IMAP.


Restart IMAP.


See if it acts normal.


If it does, proceed. If not - this is fubar - try something else.


Put back one mailbox file at a time and observe IMAPs behavior.


As long as IMAP seems normal continue.


At some point - presumably - one of the mailbox files will cause IMAP to go crazy -- if we're lucky.


When you find that one -- move it off again to avoid the problem (probably restart IMAP to do it).


Replace the other IMAP users' mailbox files.


If this procedure works as expected we may discover a corrupted mailbox file that is causing a problem with IMAP.


If we're that lucky then we will be able to decide what to do with that mailbox file later and in the mean time go back to normal.


Let me know if this works (hope it does).


If it doesn't work I hope we learn something new at least.


Best,
