We tried turning that one off, as well as others, no luck. We have a temp fix going: stops and re-starts the service every 10 minutes as it ramps the processor up to 100%. I may need to change that to 5 minutes. This is working, but I hope they come up with a permanent fix shortly. The support tech, I was bumped up a notch, noted that the 64-bit version of Ninja has experienced the same problem, so they were working on a fix for the 32-bit version. Makes me worried about using Ninja when I move up to Exchange '07.

Disable it, if so. That antispam engine is NOT ready for primetime, and will stop all mail flow. Sunbelt support should have told you that, but in case they didn't, now you know. It works pretty well with the other 3 A/S engines and all of the A/V engines active. You will most likely get a lot of false-positives: make custom rules to whitelist any domains you must receive mail from. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Holstrom, Don Sent: Monday, October 15, 2007 7:00 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: could/should I make my Exchange server also a DNS server I checked, I am not doing reverse lookup. I am a one-man shop here at the Museum, it took me awhile to even find what you were pointing out. I have had the same results with Ninja, it shut my server down twice before, and they were quick to help me fix it. But this time, as soon as I engage Ninja, within 10-20 minutes, my processor (dual dual AMDs) usage runs up to 100%, when it is normally in the 3%-8% range. I have 4 gigs of RAM in that machine, and it does nothing else. So I have to dis-engage Ninja, and spam (and virii) flows in to anyone not using cached here with IMF and the Outlook filtration turned on. Through Terminal Server, for example, or OWA. I like Ninja, but the president of this museum wants all spam ended. If they don't fix today (we have been working on a solution for one day shy of a week) I will be forced to change. Any suggestions for anti-virus/spam protection? What works now and also will work with Exchange 07, to be implemented in a couple of months? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Derek Harris Sent: Sunday, October 14, 2007 2:05 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: could/should I make my Exchange server also a DNS server Are you doing reverse lookups on incoming msgs? (SMTP Virtual Server properties > Delivery tab > Advanced) If you are, you should configure external DNS servers, or it WILL hammer yours. I'm using Ninja now, and it works OK, but I'm a little disappointed with all of its bugs. Sunbelt is pretty responsive & fixes most of them quickly, but it's caused several short outages here, and it still causes many messages with attachments to timeout and drop.

If your Exchange server is hitting the DNS servers abnormally hard, then maybe it's doing a lot of NDRs to spam. Do you have an antispam front-end such as IMF installed?
