>This is a very serious problem.  Does mail just stop?

As Grant said, mail goes out very, very slow since "SMTP client" 
processes that send mail get taken out, one by one, by a killer msg 
in the queue.  This is not often reported here, so it's not something 
to panic about, but there has been an outbreak of it in the last 
couple of weeks.  It rilly rilly needs to be fixed and/or the SMTP 
process instrumented/logging better so the bad msg can be identified, 
or something.

I would say the vast majority of Imail users have never had this pb 
(eg, I haven't in 3+ years, but if you have it, it really hurts to 
not be able to deliver mail, and the more volume you have outgoing 
the worse it is as the queue build up becomes humongous.  The 
imail\spool partition needs to have a couple of gigabytes free space 
just in case.
