Check the IMAP logs of recent compared to some of the older ones. We
should rule out that someone is not hitting you with excessive
connections etc. A couple weeks ago one of my systems started having
problems with the POP3 service being slow or timing out. It turned out
someone was running an automated tool to try and crack accounts/passwords.

Which RBL's are timing out? Is your DNS server having problems? Is
your DNS server local to the mail server or is it located somewhere else?
It is totally random ... sometimes none of them for several messages, other
times, the first several work, and the rest fail ... doesn't seem to be any
pattern
(3) IMAP4d32.exe services are running 99% of the cpu time ...
This will essentially starve out Declude and anything else. I have seen
several folks have this issue on the Imail list. What version of Imail
are you using?
9.23 since it was released ... been running it for a while.
Any thoughts on where to start ... I've rebooted, stopped services,
restarted services ... works fine for about 8 hrs then starts up all
over again
I would start with the IMAP4D issue.
Darrell, I agree ... just wish I knew what was affecting it.
Another response suggested the file system ... and I noticed the comment from
the Sniffer people about NTFS.
We have had some bad sectors on our hard drive starting about a few weeks ago
... Ran chkdsk etc and that seemed to have caught them, ran a defrag session
today ...
I order today a new Barracuda ES2 drive for the server, which will arrive
Monday and I'll attempt to clone.
Linda @ Declude suggested I might be having a bad network card go bad, which
she thinks is attributing to the failed RBL issues, but I don't think that
would affect the IMAP usage.
Short of installing a new network card / drive ... any other thoughts what to
try?
