Thanks Benoit

The log files are not out of the ordinary for size and entries; still averaging about 1200 blacklist blocks out of about 5000 total inlog entries a day (I believe this to be a very small mail server on the grander scheme of things).

NT4.0 sp6.0 all patches applied running on a PIII/500, 256MB RAM, mirrored 8GB SCSI drives.

Also serving our small web site <www.nlc.bc.ca> and running Bind DNS 4.9.5

Don

If you can observe a sudden increase in the number of threads used by
SMTPRCV before a crash,
then you probably experience the same problem than some of us

Did you notice an increase in your smtp inlog files ? In my case it is the
only observable change since the days everything worked fine.

Subject: Trouble with Memory leaks


(could it be something with Spamcop
| black list - our main one - bl.spamcop.net) all logs appear normal except
| in the Application Event Log POP3S errors would appear about the same time
| as the SMTPRCV memory usage was climbing often the first service to fail
| was the MacPrint services (since moved to another server and disabled) DNS
| fails with the error below and then without any log but visually confirmed
| the SCSMFILTER would fail.  Often the server would continue to receive
mail
| for some time after these services failed before the SMTPRCV service
failed.
