You probably need a faster connection to the Internet. For 3000+ mailboxes sending "excessively" amounts of mail, 1 Mbps is not enough. If there is web traffic for those 3000 users in addition to the E-mail, then your Internet connection is badly overloaded.
By default the IMS permits multiple inbound and outbound connections, and you can increase or reduce those numbers with just the one IMS. Additional IMS connectors are not likely to help. The IMS does allow you to limit the maximum message size, which may help. Your users should be told that their large attachments are no longer permitted due to the overload problem.

"hi, i have really good questions";i'm not a real proffessional :( I have just an IMS for Exchnage 5.5 installed on a W2K server.Total Mailbox number in our unique site is 3000+.My users send excessively lots of mail out from intranet to the internet.Although our internet output is 1 Mbps,IMS queue is stucking extremely in business hours especially.So,the questions are, What can i do to improve the performance of IMS? Can i use more than one IMS in the EXC. 5.5 organization for aiming load balance?..If yes,how can i implement more than one IMS,for example may i use 3 IMS just for outbound at the same time on 3 EXC.5.5 servers?.. MS Windows NT Enterprise Ed. with SP6a on NT domain Exchange Server 5.5 with SP 4 I'm waiting curiously your replies,thanx all?..
