I asked the group about this in the last week or so.

The initial problem was "MX connect fail [x.x.x.x]"

The suggestion was to try another network adapter. Well that was not the
problem, the problem is as follows;

Issue verified on Imail server 7.15 and 8.01 HF1

Problem description:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Windows 2000 with IIS on port 80
Imonitor monitoring WWW on port 80

We only run SSL port 443 for Web messaging and a non secure port, not port
80, that is blocked by our firewall for Web messaging.

IMonitor use up all client connection ports between 1024 and 5000 in about 3
days well 2.76 days to be exact. netstat shows a large number of CLOSE_WAIT
ports that never close from ant to the IPaddress of the mail server. If you
start and stop Imonitor the problem clears.


Fix: Do not allow IMonitor to monitor Web Messaging unless you supply the
IMail actual Web Messaging HTTP port.
