I've seen some discussion in an NT list about 48 megs being the limit for 
hmm, whatever, in NT CPU process resources, and cranking up to 100 SMTP 
processes in Imail apparently can cause "ungraceful degradation".

This is very similar to the Cold Fusion pb's where Allaire's 
recommendation, a couple of years ago, about how many CF processes to allow 
(1, then 2, then 4, then 10, then 4 -kind of story), and CF would just grab 
100% of the machine at times, need to stop/start CF.

And many of those situations were also tied to MS's crappy ODBC driver for 
Access, not Allaire's fault at all (other than the fault of depending on MS 
for industrial-strength, infrastructure-quality solutions).

So this Imail instabilty has a very d�ja vu look to it, for Cold Fusion 
veterans.  Until it settles down, I think the prudent recommendation is to 
keep as quiet as possible about Web Messaging, and then only advise it for 
those exceptional "on the road / away from my desktop mail client" situations.
