I've found that that doesn't always work either. The safest and most
reliable way (that I have discovered so far)to use SQL with Imail is to have
the DSN in ODBC configured to use NT authentication to login to SQL server,
rather than storing a userid/password combination in the DSN record. Also
don't use a file DSN, use a machine one. It will make a lot of difference to
your throughput.
