RE: [IMail Forum] POP3 Service processor utilization

[John Queen]

I ran the upgrade last night and am seeing the same issues on 8.22. Does anyone have any other ideas?   Thanks!   John Queen Office:  877.707.5467 x744 Direct:  615.627.9744 Fax:      615.467.6249     [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.dealerskins.com www.whatisredline.com   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Grant Griffith - IMail Sent: Monday, January 30, 2006 12:12 PM To: Imail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] POP3 Service processor utilization John, we are running IMail 8.22 and are not seeing this.  We have around 6000 users and most of them use POP3 without any issues.  Our server is about the same as yours.  I hardly ever see POP3 taking much resources at all.  Might want to upgrade as I think there were some vulnerabilities is versions before 8.22?  I could be wrong though.   Thanks, Grant Griffith EI8HTLEGS, A Division of ETC (812)932-1000 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Queen Sent: Monday, January 30, 2006 12:57 PM To: Imail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: [IMail Forum] POP3 Service processor utilization   Question, For the past 2 or 3 weeks the POP3d32.exe service is using all available processor and basically slowing the server to a crawl. Restarting the service only helps for about 3 minutes. The service consistently uses 60~70% of the processor all the time.   We are on version 8.21, Dual 2.8GHz XEON processors, 4 GB RAM.   Memory utilization is around 1GB total.   Is there a way to throttle the POP3 service to use less processor? I have around 3,000 users currently on the server and am looking at moving our additional 3~5,000 users to this server from Merak shortly. How to I keep POP3 from stealing so much processor?   Thanks!
