The only sympton is that people can not SEND email they can still receive without a problem
always, the first place is to look at your logs to see why a single person, not "people", cannot send mail.
I bet your queue processing is screwed up. How many msgs in your mail queue.
To try to get new mail moving quickly, move the entire contents of the queue directory to another directory,
stop/start SMTP
if new mail starts moving again, that's progress.
then you have to deal with moving the old mail back.

My average log file size for a day is about 140 - 160 mg. We are an ISP that handles about 6000 plus user accounts.
I have always had a concern about the size of the logs but after talking with ipswitch and having them examine the logs for the type of service we are, isp, the volume of email we handle will generate that type of a log.
Can anyone any suggestions, as of now the server appears to be stable and has been for almost 18 hrs.
Thanks
