Imail on quad xeon 500, 1GB ram, large raid
SQL 6.5/7 (same on both versions) on quad xeon 500, 1GB ram, large raid.
pop3 users randomly don't authenticate.
When sql set to log, hstatement cursor errors are seen, MS suggests work
around, it don't work.
basically the way imail uses external SQL db dont work, and they expect you
to re-program the DLL yourself. (I pay for software to avoid having to do
that!!!!!).
Other's in this list have attempted to do this, and have seem to have found
it is a basic problem in the way Imail works. (explains why ipswitch haven't
done anything to fix it).
(A temporary fix, is to make a access DB that has linked tables to the sql,
and point Imail at the access DB, but this has problems in it's self)
