Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] SMTP stops working
With regards to the SMTPD stopping I had experienced
the same problem when using the spam filtering built
into Imail. When I disabled all spam filtering the
problem stopped. I eventually went with declude
junkmail and the problem has never appeared again.
Thank you
Greg
