Ron,
I don't run IIS on this server because of all the port requirements that the
Government restricts us on. I don't have the luxury of using any port I
want, I only have a limited few so I push everything using SSL on 443 and
9000. The other problem is that Imail listens on the same ports for all
IP's.
I host three servers to use this mail program, 1 - SQL2000 server, 1 - IIS
and 1 - Imail. We made some changes to the EZSignup templates so that we
didn't have to use the adduser.exe and therefore were able to host it
completely on the IIS server. I must say it works great. I'm even serving
up the KillerLDAP from the IIS web server.
I have done everything to limit the resource requirements on the system and
I have like no load on the server.

No error to date have appeared in the logs. I just get a gap in entries in
the W2 log.

My mistake, it is JavaScript. I got confused from another application -
sorry.

Intel 8255x 10/100 Nic, I use all the default setting in Imail and serve up
all additional services from another IIS server including Images - Other
than forcing SSL on 443, I didn't check "Enable Thread Pooling" and "Enable
User Login Suspend". Exactly what the Imail defaults are I have no idea. I
know how to adjust the setting for IIS and have no clue for Imail.

I say all this to illustrate, I have like no load on the Imail server. I

There is no VBScript in either IMail or KillerWebMail. The code in
KillerWebMail is Imail tags (the same as the stock templates), and
HTML/JavaScript (which execute on the client-side and CANNOT cause server
problems - unless of course they're stuck in some horrendous loop, which
would be immediately noticeable). KWM has been around since Sept of 2000,
and is installed in over 1,000 locations worldwide. I seriously doubt if
all of a sudden it is responsible for Ipswitch's iwebmsg crashes, but I am
keeping an open mind about it, and appreciate any feedback and CONCRETE
EVIDENCE (see log question above) users can provide.

What NIC cards are you running? What are your web messaging settings (keep
alives, thread pooling, etc.)?
