If stopping/starting the service doesn't clear this
then I would have to look at hardware, typically network subsystem (NIC) and you
have to reset the server to reset the hardware

problems
One problem solved. The client that couldn't send but
could receive finally called his ISP who had just moved to another provider
themselves. They were trying to route all email through their own mail
servers. Once the DNS was fixed on their side everything worked
ok.
That still doesn't answer the problem with POP not working at other
clients from time to time until I reboot the server. A simple stop/start
of the service doesn't fix that problem.

That is the
extent to the entries in the log. We have SMTP and POP3 both in the
same log.

problems
I currently have 8.05 fully patched on a win2k
server. We have a Sonicwall Pro 330 firewall with cisco routers and
switches. We get our bandwidth from Sprint, and MCI.
For some
time I have experienced an intermittent problem with some, not all, of my
clients being able to access pop3 from their client programs
(outlooks).
They typically can receive email but cannot send
email.
This will happen to 2 or 3 of my client domains that reside on
my server.
This is the entry for one of our clients today that nobody
in their office can send email via the client.
08:23 11:46 POP3D
(00000570) logon success
for
sashwill
mail.somecompany.com
from
xx.xxx.xxx.xxx
08:23 11:46 POP3D
(00000570) logoff for
sashwill R:0,
D:0,
P:0
This is the entire entry for this persons
attempt to send an email to me on the server.
I do not have their IP
listed in SMTP security and do not want to.
I had another client
early in the morning with the same problem. I rebooted the server and
their problems cleared up but this client is still having the
problem.
Has anybody else seen problems like this and if so what
solution was found if any?
Since this is only happening upon occasion
I am inclined to believe the problem is somewhere outside our network.
Also since it doesn't impact our clients severely I have ignored the problem
for the most part.
We will be upgrading to the latest version soon
and I wanted to at least find out where the problem is coming
from.
