Len,
I have only been able to see 1 smtpd32.exe process at one time on the
server. I have seen 2 smtp32.exe processes.
The rollover happens several times a day. Yesterday the server processed
over 12,000 messages. If you count the copy all option it processed over
23,000 messages. The odd part is that some of the rollovers happen during
off peak times such as between 1:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. Of course most of
those are mailing list servers sending horoscopes and other necessities of
life. I inherited this server in August but through some research
discovered that this has been happening since at least January.

SMTP"D" processes, maybe, look in NT task mgr.

for many different senders or just one? repeatedly or
occassionally? If one, that one screwed up. If many and repeatedly,
better look at why .net is unreachable. I run MX 10 and MX 20 here,
and have almost no traffic spilling over to MX 20, maybe 1 or 2 out
of 3000/day.
