[IMail Forum] HUGE spool folder

[Glenn \\ WCNet]

Howdy to all.   I upgraded from IMail 6.06 to IMail 7.1 HF1 a few days ago.  Since then, my spool directory has grown by leaps and bounds.  It normally runs between 300 and 500 files (I think).  Yesterday evening it was at about 1500.  Right now it is 2800.  I've moved (a few) files older than 3 days out of the queue, it didn't make any difference -- spool keeps growing.  They look like normal T, D, and Q files dated within the last three days, but why are there so many???  I'm not getting any specific complaints about undelivered or missing mail from my users.   I am running Declude JunkMail and Virus.  Perhaps the extra processing is putting too much of a load on the server?  Per WhatsUp, SMTP keeps bouncing up and down, but the service never actually fails.  SMTP and POP3 are a touch sluggish in my OE, but they do work.  WebMessaging has also been a touch flaky, and there have been a few complaints from users about that.   Glenn Zajicek WCNet
