We had a similar problem where the system just locked. Console froze and only resort was to power cycle the system. If the system totally locked up it may indicate a hardware problem. At least in our case it was. Check to see if you might have some bad memory in the system. We had a couple of dimms that were bad.

Our exchange 5.5 server with sp4 installed just froze up. It was not responding to outlook clients and the cursor was not responsive. I had to resort to the reset button to restart it. Is is possible that a malformed mail message could have caused this? Is there a post SP4 patch that might help? This server has never locked up like this in the last 2 years, and nothing has changed recently.
