Do you have any rules that are disabled? If so remove them. Sounds crazy
but I have seen this twice now in R65.

Subject: [FW-1] Help! with SMTP security server problem

Help! I've got a problem where my NGX R65 is not dequeuing messages.

Background -- I'm working on upgrading (by complete replacement) a NG 
firewall with a NGX R65 firewall. I will ultimately be on a VPN-1 UTM 
license. Right now, I'm on a demo license. (CPMP-EVAL-NGX)

What happens is that all of my inbound and outbound mail is just getting

stuck in the $FWDIR/spool directory (lots of files named R* in there),
and 
are not getting sent to their destination.

What I've noticed is that the mdq process is not running. There's also
no 
fwssd process running.  I've seen instructions to run "fw mdq" to
restart, 
but that doesn't do anything (it gives me a help page on how to run the 
'fw' command.)

I'm not using a content checking filter. I'm just using the security 
server to take mail from our DMZ mail server, and route port 25 on the 
firewall to our inside mail server.

What am I doing wrong? This works just fine on NG!
