Jeff,
No answers, but lots of questions!
How are you testing the SMTP service? If it is still running, try a telnet
session and show us the 220 line sent when the connection is completed. What
DB are you using? How many users and domains on this system? What is the
size of the largest mailbox (find the biggest main.mbx file)? How big is
your swap file? (should be at least 1.5xRAM, 3X is better!)
Don't know of any reason that IMail would cause W2K to 'crash'. I have seen
problems with NICs and their drivers cause problems, but not a crash. What
does Event log show? At what point does it crash?
