Hi All,
We have noticed in the past with our mail servers that the SMTP servers
occasionally stop writing to the logs. We did not overly fuss about this as
the production server was under-resourced and the other one is a
development machine that we break regularly :-)
Now that we are running an over-resourced production machine we have
noticed an increase in the number of the times when the SMTP server stops
writing. It only does so when the service has been stopped and started
again, the server writes its start-up info to the logs and then nothing
more gets written. Before we just restarted the service and all was well
but yesterday we had 5 goes to get it to start logging and eventually had
to reboot the machine, not a good scene at all.
(If you are wondering why we had to restart the service in the 1st place we
had a weirdness where a client NTMail machine that is relaying thru' the
production server got its TCP/IP connection all tangled and there was no
traffic flowing between these machines even tho' everything was OK in all
other directions... {-0 )
Has anyone else seen this "no log writing" effect?

Yours,
Kym
