Is it okay to have two dns servers (both are currently working) listed in

Apparently, it is OK to have 2 listed, but only the first one will be
used. Is their any way to specify a backup DNS server to IMail?

I looked in the spool directory and there are 13,000+ files in spool AND
another 13,000+ in spool/overflow -- OUCH!

that is in imail.
Try a NSLOOKUP setting the dns server to the one setup in imail.
Are the messages in the queue legitimate email or have you been hijaked???
