I had the problem and DNS was running on a different machine.  I could start and stop the mail server and that wouldnt fix it only restarting the machine would. Because of that I could see how it could be a problem with something else.  Just not the DNS for me.

Are you running DNS on the same machine?  if so check that it is not a problem with DNS being dead and so outbound names suddenly become unresolvable...  Next time it happens try restarting DNS only, then process Queue on IMAIL as a test.  Rebooting may be fixing your "weakling" NT DNS service and IMAIL gets the blame.

I am having a strange problem with imail 5.0.  About every week or so imail stops sending and receiving mail.  It's like it holds all the mail in queue and I have to restart the machine to get it to release.  It doesn't lose any messages, it just stops doing it's thing until I restart then it works for about a week then does it again.  Anyone every heard of this?
