apparently they have been down for a few days so I dont know why the problem suddenly manifested itself. It occurred simultainiously on both of my filtering gateways, this is the busy time of the month for us and both servers see about 70,000 messages a day

slow mail delivery was the first symptom

I noticed the delivery time of my email was very slow - some mail sat in the
queue for 15 minutes. But my cpu and ram were fine. I checked my spam log
and saw all the blacklist connection errors so I just disabled the
blackholes blacklists. Perhaps blackholes.us is just having some problems
(site isn't loading for me).

Subject: [IMail Forum] RBL unreachability = Failed SMTP service Imail
8.2HF2


I encountered a situation last night where some of my trusted blacklists
(for deletion) became unreachable for whatever reason (xxxx.blackholes.us, I
see some chatter that they are down)

The Imail SMTPD32 service went into a cycle of running the ram up somewhere
in the range of 200MB and then failing with a log entry of:
07:26 12:07 Network Layer(0000000000c20078) Get Buffer Alloc failed: 8

Which is likely the nic buffer overflowing trying to talk to the
unresponsive RBL

I can reproduce this behavior at will by simply adding the failed blacklist

Did anyone else suffer similar issues recently? I narrowed it down to
japan.blackholes.us as the one the was causing the most flagrant RAM run up
