Grant, Are you running the IMonitor service? I'd suggest not, especially if WU is also monitoring things.
Are there any other symptoms before things just stop (like slower response)? It is quite unusual that a simple restart of services does not work (this should close all the open connections). To me that implies something more system related. I'd suggest running CHKDSK /F as a start and any other system diagnostics that you can lay your hands on (memory test, at least!) The netstat suggestion is also a good one to be sure that connections are not left open, using up the 5000 or so, Windows allows by default. There are Windows configurations mentioned on this list in the past than can help if this is the problem.

Below is the server setup. Windows 2003 Server running Imail 8.22 with all hot fixes and everything. Dual Pent 3.06GHz Proc 4 GB RAM For some reason about every 7 days on average the server will lock-up and we will have to power it off manually and restart it. I have had a few instances where it has created a Dr Watson error and I upload the memory dump to Micro$oft, but never hear anything back. Anyway, I have looked thru the Event Logs and all Imail logs and can not find anything showing any type of errors. I even used the Imail Log Analyzer and it does not show anything unusual that I can find. We do use What's Up Pro to monitor the server and it reports the issue to us, but I need to know why it is occurring to get it resolved. Anyone know of any other logs I might be able to look at to get a clue as to why things suddenly shut-down? It is weird as I can usually still ping the server, but Imail is dead in the water. This happened last night and I tried restarting the Imail services, but it ended up just hanging the server when they tried to restart.
