Received an email a bit ago that states SmarterMail 4 will incorporate SpamAssassin out of the box.

Because I got a WHOLE lot of free Linux ones that I would like to add into that mix. I think that seems pretty unrealistic. ASSP would need to partner with Ipswitch and do what any partnership would fees/contracts/ndc's and so on. Not as easy as you think. ----------------------------------------- Travis Rabe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matrosity Hosting Sent: Friday, December 15, 2006 8:56 AM To: Imail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Quemanager hanging again Seems to me that ipswitch would be smart to support an assp hook to retain customers.

I'm srry for them, but a free-open-source-3rd-party software mantains my $USD application alive. If assp wasn't installed, we had moved to other software. We found assp looking for mail servers :o -----Mensaje original----- De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] nombre de Heimir Eidskrem Enviado el: viernes, 15 de diciembre de 2006 17:37 Para: Imail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Asunto: Re: [IMail Forum] Quemanager hanging again Thank you for the suggestion but it must be so embarrassing for Ipswitch to read it. Customers required to run 3rd party applications to make Imail stable. Servei Tècnic [ MICROTECH ] wrote: yes, install 3rd party such as assp http://www.asspsmtp.org We had the same problem. Our queue hangs up to ten times per day. we had a script running every 30 minutes to check if queue was running or stop pending, killing task and starting service again. the problem went away after installing ASSP, never more queuemgr hangs (8 months assp running). Just try. You'll be surprised!!

You have to kill the process and restart it for it to work. How about fixing this problem once for all. I have a similar problem with 8.22 and a certain mail which kills SMTPd32 - Only the first line of the header gets stuck in the SPOOl directoy, when the service dies. Now I use ASSP to block it on the Adres, I found in the logs. Use the free version of serversalive with the SMTP-Roundtrip Plugin If it fails, start a batch to Stop all Imail-Services, kill all hanging Services and finally restart all Services. http://www.woodstone.nu/salive/index.asp Not to minimize the problems others are having, but we've been running 8.22 for a year and it has been rock solid on an old Dell server with a T1. We've always kept up with the patches and haven't had a lick of trouble with Imail stopping or dying, in over 6 years. With only 10k SMTP connections a day and 3k emails a day actually handled by Imail, I would think we are also substatially smaller than most Imail sites, so maybe that has something to do with it. It is, more importantly, completely insolated from the internet and no external SMTP gets to it without first going through ASSP, Trend AV gateway, & hMailserver (ClamAV/antiphish gateway). These odd, killer emails are apparently just not reaching our Imail. I also use Servers Alive to monitor the services from another computer, although I am not using the roundtrip plugin. It has been very stable and useful, and I use it to monitor other servers and services as well. Very configurable but can momentarily run the cpu at 100% when trying to communicate with a service that is down. Noticable since I run it on my desktop at work and things come to a screaming halt for a few moments and my system fan spools up right before I get notice that a problem exists. Probably my fault since I am running it on a 2ghz Celeron with 512MB ram and have that much and more in use most of the time.

I did not see any suggestion on how to correct this problem or your own personal experience. I read your blurb about a lightweight mail server that has nothing to do with this Are you telling us that we need to install a 3rd party application to make Imail run stable?
