I would urge him to upgrade to 6.06(?), the latest of the 6.xx
releases. It may be a known problem that has since been fixed.

It sounds like there may be some "corrupt" files in the spool (ones that
IMail can't deal with). Upgrading would be the first suggestion. The next
suggestion would be to look at the files in the spool to see if there is
anything unusual about them.
You can move all the spool files to a temporary directory to get the server
up and running again, and then move the files back slowly several at a time
until you can identify the ones that are causing the problem.
