PROBLEMS WITH USER AFTER THEY UPGRADED FROM NETSCAPE 7.01 TO 7.1:

Setup Information:

Windows NT 4 SP6
Imail ver 6.06
Relay for specified addresses - others require authentication.

Details:

User utilizes Netscape Mail for accessing company email. Was using
Netscape 7.01
without any problems (other users are using Netscape versions 4.75 and
7.01).

User upgraded system to Netscape 7.1 and this resulted in not being able
to send
email through our Imail server. Receiving email is not a problem. Also,
when he
does attempt to send email, this locks up the SMTPD32 service resulting
in
nobody being able to send email.

Changed relay settings to Relay for Local Hosts (Temporarily) and the
same problem
occurred.

Built a test workstation with the same configuration as the user and set
up dummy test
email account. Went through same upgrade process and got exactly the
same
result. SMTP services locked up until I manually stopped / restarted the
SMTP service
on the Imail server.

I checked the Imail system log (sysMMDDYY) and there is a corresponding
error
message of SMTP process starting on port 25 (this is normal)
Next line is SMTPD(00501354) Failed to bind socket (10048)

The only time that I see this error or have problems with users sending
email is
with Netscape 7.1.

Also, I have confirmed that the email settings, relating to the outgoing
SMTP server,  in Netscape did not change when going from version 7.01 to
7.1.  Also, sending emails out via the Netscape Web-Mail server are
working.

Any ideas and/or suggestions are appreciated.
