Hi,
I'm wondering if any of you have seen this one... Especially Howie, I guess :)
Occasionally, CF seems to freak out on my iMS machine and starts returning 404 errors
to the SMTP server. Interestingly, the POP server isn't affected.
I can't figure out if this is a CF problem or iMS... The fact that POP doesn't
generate any errors during this time suggests iMS. Also, if I restart the SMTP
service, the problem fixes itself.
Here are the only "strange" lines from the logs that I can find. It almost suggests
iMS starts looking for templates with strange names, which wouldn't exists.
These lines usually appear before the 404 error in the SMTP log. The exact errors seem
to depend on who is sending mail and how. In all cases they follow a warning line
that says "Application server response:".

(Note the garbage chars in there. wdg2.worlddesign.com is the sending MTA in a couple
of these.)
I can't really see any pattern in when this happens, but once it starts it keeps
throwing errors for every connection until SMTP is restarted. Does seem to happen
when there are 20 or more connections to the SMTP service, but most of the time it
handles > 20 connections with no problem. I have the max threads set to 40. I am
baffled and bothered.
If there's anything I can do to help track this down, please let me know.
On a related note... does anyone know a little monitoring utility that actually tries
to send mail to verify that a mail server is up? I run What'sUp Gold from Ipswitch,
and I don't think it does that. I might just have to write one real quick in CF....
TIA,
