More Information On the problem... - The problem abruptly started last week. We never had a problem before then. - When the problem, manifests itself, it is a SUDDEN event. CPU utilization jumps from an average of 2% - 10% to 30% - 80%. Again, it is not a gradual thing and I can't seem to pin it on any one email box.

I suspect that when Imail gets very busy, and then has to scan huge mailbox files for imap or webmail, it screws up SMTP AUTH and the scanning process. just a guess. imap is evil, webmail is evil, for encouraging uses to keep huge mailboxes on the server.
