Katie,

When I asked you to check for "send error" lines I suspected problems
due to high latency delays on certain connection types. Not only
satellite connections but also dialup-lines with heavy traffic can have
long delays.

You can check this with ping:
C:\ping [your.server.ip] -t

You can incerase the traffic indicating the parameter -l 6400 on the end
that sends out ping packets with a size of 6400 bytes:
C:\ping [your.server.ip] -t -t 6400

We've seen that high delays between 2 following packets can cause the
Imail server to drop silently the connection (SMTP and POP3) In the
logfile then we've found several lines containing "send error 10054"
The client can't send or recieve no more packets to/from the server and
after his timeout value he reports an error.
