I use a custom port and they actually tried to hit that and only that port and did not go after any other IP either.
I suspect it was someone that has/had personal knowledge on either this, or one of my past build-ups. That narrows down the playing filed to a handful and I think I know who. I have setup some additional stuff to trap the source and will play "tag you're it" when they try again. If it's who I think, I probably know their admin password and will drop them a desktop message (telling them they're busted) when they try again. :) That should get the point across. On a different note, anyone running "mail essentials" having problems with performance may want to upgrade - a known bug exists and they released a new version that resolves the performance issue (tech support confirmed).
