Symptom 1: incoming queues were completely clogged. No SMTP coming in at all. Only restarting the server, usually with the power button <shudder> would temporarily unclog them.
Symptom 2: SMTP server would put up to 100 identical copies of each message in the mailbox. Stopping the SMTP server was the only quick fix. These symptoms occurred on two totally separate servers, 1 on my production server, and 2 on my home/lab server. The culprit in both cases turned out to be Symantec Mail Security. Symptom 1 was resolved by installing a version upgrade of SMS. I suspect that uninstalling and reinstalling the incumbent version would have had the same effect. Symptom 2 was cured by completely removing the Symantec products and replacing them with another AV. I'm trying AVG. Anybody have experience with their Exchange product? _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=exchange To subscribe: http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
