>From the IMail User's Guide, "Auto-deny possible hack attempts":
"If more than 512 characters are sent during anything but the SMTP DATA
command, the remote IP address is temporarily put in the "deny access"
(Control Access) file until you stop and restart the service and then
disconnects. Sending more than 512 characters in anything but the SMTP DATA
command would look like an attempt to "hack" in to your server. You will not
see the address in the "deny access" list, but it is reported in the log
file."
Hope this helps ... Helen Delany
