This
is really strange. My SMTP service dies (but does restart) when someone
connects to it. I have talked to one client and he's simply using outlook
express 5.5 from MSN's network. It only affects the SMTP server but this is not
good at all...
I've watched this now for two days (Since I can't call
ipswitch without my service agreement number and serial number which are at home
UGH!) since upgrading from 5. The last time we installed 6.02 on this box the
SMTP server just died altogether and would only queue email and not deliver no
matter what we tried so we rolled back to 5. I'd hate to have to roll back again
as this really should be working. What's terrible is these guys are hitting the mail
server every 2 minutes! So it's going down every two minutes, then up in a
minute and then back down in a minute when he hits the mail again! This is
obviously screwing things up.
So
anyone else seen this problem and have a solution?
here's
