I upgraded to 8.11 from 8.1hf2 this morning. All went well then about 10 minutes
later smtp "seemed" to stop resonding. If I stopped and restarted the service it
lasted about 10 minures then "seemed" to stop responding again.
Our mailserver is hosted behind our netscreen NAT (PAT actually) our clients connect
by going to the outside mapped ip of the mailserver.
It seems as though the smtp server saw these connections comming from the nat (Many to
One) as a hack attempt, turning off the "auto-deny possible hack attempts" fixed the
problem.
Nothing was every logged.
Hopes this helps others.
