Sounds good but we are talking about once a month or more. I am certain that it is not the NICs because I literally switched the HDD into another Optiplex identical to the one that it is in now and this still occurred. I have also tried the Intel based NICs and get the same thing.
As I said it happens particularly when [EMAIL PROTECTED] gets modified to some degree. However, I will look at the log files the next time this occurs. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of R.

The Knowledge Base is an excellent resource... most of the time. There are occasional entries that offer one possible solution to a problem without discussing others, and I think that this may be one of those cases. Have you checked the IMail log files to see if it shows the E-mail arriving just once, and to see if it shows that it was delivered more than once? There are rare cases where duplicate mails will legitimately occur with a TCP/IP connection broken at the wrong point in the connection, but we aren't talking about 1 in 10,000 (my guess of what infrequently might mean here), that would be more like 1 in 1,000,000 E-mails. I'm guessing the log files will provide a clue as to what the problem is. -Scott --- Declude: Anti-virus, Anti-spam and Anti-hijacking solutions for IMail. http://www.declude.com --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
