I recently had the same problem....I ran the latest update then rebooted....Blue screen.... I think the blue screen error was re: blackice.sys I had to rebuild the server and it's been stable since. I didn't have time to trouble shoot as it was my primary mail server.
I know it's not the type of answer that you wanted to hear but It worked for me.

Upon further investigation, I'm thinking that this is a GUI issue because under the advanced firewall settings, I do see IPs getting blocked for the time period where it was showing 0.0.0.0 as the intruder IP. However ... I'm actually less astounded by this then I thought I'd be. A few weeks ago, an analysis on our log files revealed that we were getting approximately 100,000 ERR invalid user attempted deliveries a day; by offloading the domains getting hit the hardest to a IIS SMTP gateway box using ORF, we've got that down to 10-15K failed attempted deliveries a day. At this point, I have BlackIce blocking hosts if they make 3 SMTP errors in a 90 second period, and I'm only blocking about 30 hosts per hour. More concerning, is that my concurrent SMTP sessions are staying absurdly high - anywhere from 55 concurrent to over 80. My server only ldelivers 20,000 messages a day. This is so frustrating. -Jay -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of john cesta Sent: Friday, November 19, 2004 12:50 PM To: Jay Sudowski - Handy Networks, LLC Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Blackice On Fri, 19 Nov 2004 10:37:40 -0700, Jay Sudowski - Handy Networks, LLC wrote: >�I'm not sure it's working flawlessly for me. �After a period of >�time, the application starts reporting the intruder address as >�0.0.0.0 and the count increment on that event goes up, and up, and >�up. �I'm not sure if this is simply a GUI bug or not. �It's bugging >�me regardless.
