Actually what is probably happening is there are some really large mailboxes. These will chew up CPU cycles while reading the mailboxes in question. remedy, limit mailbox sizes to something manageable. If this isn't feasible then you will have to live with these times of usage. As long as it comes down on its own its not really a problem IMHO

One of my Imail servers is experiencing abnormally high CPU utilization periods (100% flat for a few minutes). Most utilization comes from WebMessaging. We have already replaced the dual 650MHz CPUs with dual 850MHz. I have moved the Web folder to another spindle. I also moved the SPOOL directory to another spindle. I have defragged the drives. It helped somewhat but still once in a while the server gets bogged down. I have been looking at the logs and it seems that the high CPU utilization coincides with events like this: 20021203 120027 Info - 200.61.69.184 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows 98; DigExt) http://mail.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/ POST /login.cgi HTTP/1.0. 20021203 120029 Info - 216.170.73.98 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows 98; DigExt) http://mail.xxxxxx.xxx/Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/readmail.5178.cgi?mbx=Main&msgsort =1 GET /Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/forward.gif HTTP/1.0. My understanding that DigExt means that the user has made this web page favorite and available offline. So the whole site gets downloaded each time the user logs in. Am I thinking in the right direction? Is there a way to kill DigExt?
