Are you certain that the problem is within your mail server? I ask because I've had a similar situation, a few times and finally tracked it to our Sonic Wall firewall (which also does virus scanning). It, apparently, scans streams on the fly so, if a Virus is detected in an attachment, the SMTP connection is, basically, broken without warning. Just a thought? -- Larry G.
