David, Glad to help and ultimately prove the problem was not really the POP3 service!
Registry 'cross ups' are where reg info is pointing to an incorrect item. For example, a domain in IMail has 2 registry hives, one with the IP (or virtual) as the name and another with the OHN as the name. Within each is an item that points to the other hive (IP hive has item that points to OHN and domain name hive has item that points to the IP used for the domain) and when those are incorrect, your domains may not be recognized or not work correctly. I've seen these particular ones get messed up, when someone changed the IP of the machine (not much IMail can do for this!), or did not answer correctly when renaming the original domain (answering no to Are you renaming the domain? created a new domain and messed up the pointers, although IMail was doing exactly as you told it to, create a new domain...). Not sure exactly what is being sent, but there is a tool in the \imail folder, regcheck.exe, that can tell you more about what is 'crossed up' in the registry. I don't think it tells you how to fix things, though... KB might be able to help.

I'm still seeing the errors but have made some progress. The users drive isn't the issue as I moved all user accounts to another drive and the problem persisted. I managed to get some helpful support from Ipswitch who said "You have a lot of cross-ups in the registry. This can cause all kinds of services issues." Which is strange as the only admin interface we've ever used is Imail. I'm not yet certain what a "cross-up" is but I'm sure to find out soon. I'm waiting for Imail to send me a promised zip file with instructions - hopefully not destructions - sorry bad play on words. I'd like to thank all those who contributed especially Daniel who gave a lot of his valuable time. Hopefully, I'll have this sorted once and for all.
