I just wanted to thank everyone on the IMail Forum for their help with my recent problem of the spool appearing to clog up. The problem has been corrected, as everything is back to normal since about 2:00 pm with no problems. The final solution was that I defragged the paging file on both the Exchange and IMail servers, along with removing spam tests that were running from in.dnsbl.org. These specific tests were DNSILLEGAL, DNSMAILLIST, and DNSPROMO, so beware if you are running these tests using Declude Junkmail. Once again, thanks to everyone for their help in getting this problem resolved.

Did this start happening shortly after installing Declude Virus? 175,000 E-mails/day is a heavy load for virus scanning, and would require a powerful CPU. Also, with that volume, you should make sure you are running the latest version of Declude JunkMail (1.75), as it is better optimized for large volumes of E-mail (where a delay of about 10 seconds per E-mail could cause the overflow situation). I would recommend most of what John recommended -- using the Declude JunkMail debug mode briefly (for about 30 seconds), and then E-mail me the results (off the list). I can check to see if there are any DNS delays that could be causing the problem. -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
