I would call it clueless as well as stateless; we have had plenty of trouble with it (7.1.00.002 and 004 on Win2K3 Ent x64). If the service crashes it can be set to restart (at the service level), but more often than not it crashes the java and the service hangs in a state where it cannot stop, much less restart properly. As far as connecting to the mailbox, it will lose its connection (MAPI) to my Exchange server whenever that service stops to run a backup, and note the error in the AR System Email Error Logs, but since the service is still running it just picks up the connection again on the next polling cycle. The service has to be running, or it will not try to reconnect; there isn't anything like the armonitor that is trying to restart the aremaild if it dies. The problem is always when the aremaild process hangs with a java error, usually without crashing the Windows service so that it can detect the stop and attempt a new start.
Support has us on a debug build of 7.1.00.004 right now that behaves strangely, but is not crashing unless I induce that by sending it one incoming email message that has proven deadly (why that one, we don't know - we think it has hidden characters in it or something).
