This used to happen to me with an unpatched version of Outlook 2003 and upgrading to 8.2.  After making sure that all of my IMAP users disable the Junk Filtering I have not seen this anymore.  I don’t know if it was the patches or if it was the disabling that did it.

Subject: [IMail Forum] virus and Junk Email.mbx

 

Hello.

 

I am running IMail 8.15 on a Windows 2003 server with 120GB worth of HDDs.

Currently, there is about 40GB free.

 

I have had about 5 users over the past month that will ‘all of a sudden’ have a Junk Email.mbx file that is 20-40GB in size, thus taking all my free disk space.

When I monitor these files, they are constantly growing until there is no space left.

Of course this stops all Imail services from working because of the lack of disk space.

I manually delete the files and all is well.

I have run anti-virus software on this server, but find nothing.

 

Has anyone seen this?  If so, can anyone offer a reason or solution?

 

Thank you.

 

Jeff
