Subject: Re: [IMail
Forum] tmp
files in spool directory
Hi
Matrosity,
Do you
mean the tmp file thing or the memory
leak?
I
realized, that a
program alias leaves a tmp file.
I
discovered that the
tmp file will be created at the time the batch was called. So it's not
a
problem to kill the file.
Regarding
the
"memory leak": We're monitoring the amount of memory smtp service and
queue manager is using.
This is a
good
indication for the "stress level" the mail server is running.
Sometimes
the smtp
service crashes for no reason. After restarting both services, the mail
server
looks afterwards more healthier.
It's also
important to
know, that the smtp service and the queue manager must be treated as
"twins".
If one
service is
suffering from something, sooner or later the other one will be sick
too. This
reminds me really to the twin kids from a friend of mine ;-)
This is my
reason to
restart both services periodically, usually every 6 hours.
btw, i'm
talking about
version 8.22. I know that the queue manager is much more robust in
version
2006.x

this problem as well and y our solution is to restart smtp daily?

Hi, To avoid
spreading memory leaks and other funny things, we're restarting snmp
and queue-Manager a few times per day, usually after updating the anti
spam files. The same batch deletes also the tmp-files. It's right, the
tmp files are created by a program alias. If your're calling a batch
via the program alias, this batch can also delete his own tmp file.
This works pretty good. ============================================ Am

It is not
Imail's job to deal with the .tmp file for a program alias, it is for
the program to deal with.
Please search
the Imail KB for program alias which clearly explains that it is up to
the program to delete or move or what ever the .tmp file.

files in spool directory Hi, another small problem with ICS2006.3 I
just checked my spool directory and found lots of temporary files. All
files follow the naming scheme tmp***.tmp where *** is a three digit
hex number. All files are 2KB in size. Checking the content of the
files I found that all are valid e-mails that were sent to an alias of
type "Program". In my case it is a MailSniffer update announcement that
comes in several times a day. The mails are received correctly and
trigger the related CMD file so my MailSniffer updates do work. But
IMail leaves such a spool file every time. Just a small glitch? --
