Modusgate v3, build 282 on Windows Server 2003
 
This morning I had thousands of connections in CLOSE_WAIT state and no more TCP 
sockets could be opened (I actually had to walk into the server room to get into the 
server).
 
Restarting SMTPds got rid of them all.
 
This happened a couple of days ago too -- I didn't take time to figure it out then, I 
just rebooted.
 
Is this the situation System -> Settings -> Advanced -> Close SMTP Socket Gracefully 
is designed to address? It's currently checked, should it be unchecked?
 
Is there anything else that can be affecting these sockets?
 
Thanks,
Michael
