I'm having the very same problem with a Dr. Watson error on Web Mail. Many
times, we don't get an error, web messaging just shuts down as a service.
I've been watching it for a very long time now, and I think it's caused by
some user sending or downloading a very large attachment by Web Mail. I
don't know for sure, but this is the only thing I can think of. It seems to
happen randomly on Sundays or at peak times, between 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m.
It's not a big enough deal for me to complain loudly about, because our
system is monitored 24/7 and we just start it up again. It's never down for
over 2 or 3 minutes. It would be nice to know what's causing it.
Our machine is NT 4.0 sp5, Dual 350 PentiumII, 256K memory, dedicated mail
server with 5500 accounts.
Is there a way to monitor the number of users, or in fact, the usernames of
the users in mail at any given time?
