Alex-
Your script will fail if either SMTPD32 or QUEUEMGR is already stopped when
it runs. This happens because a failure of any step in a .bat file stops
execution of the rest of the file.
Each command should be in a separate .bat file, and your main .bat file
should call each file in turn. This works because any result from a called
file - even a failure - will cause the batch to execute the next command.
So a RECYCLE.BAT file should consist of...
call stop_smtpd32.bat
call stop_queuemgr.bat
call start_smtpd32.bat
call start_queuemgr.bat
...and each called file should contain only the NET STOP or NET START
command for the service.
Note that I stop both services and then start them in a sequence that is
based on my understanding of the logical relationship betweeen the services.
Stopping SMTP stops input to the queue, which can then be stopped. I start
SMTP first so that when the queue is restarted SMTP is ready to handle
requests from the queue.

Seems that the Imail services are shutting down at midnight when the
new log begins. We see no activity after the new log starts, though
if you go into the services, everything is shown to be running.
Anyone else seen this strange behavior? We end up restarting the box,
so the services will all start again.
Oh yeah, Imail 2006, have not installed the update yet.
Thanks,
Ann
