Yep, we've addressed all of those usual suspects you mentioned.  We're
heavily partitioned across 3 RAID1 spindles, with a nice RAID controller.
And we defragmented just yesterday.

pop3d32.exe averages 5% CPU and 5.5MB RAM during the problem times.  The
system total for CPU is ~50% and RAM 300MB (out of 2GB).  The number of
threads pop3d32.exe uses will spike up to 45 or so, and the number of
handles will spike up to 250.  There's definitely alot of disk IO going on
w/ pop3d32.exe, but nothing in particular spikes.

I'm at a loss as to what to try next.

Bill

>but my pop3d still make problems.

"obviously" you've addressed all The Usual Suspects of mega-sized .mbx
files, dedicated disks/disk partitions for spool and mbs storage, purging
stale files in spool/ and spool/web, defragging?

can you watch Task Manager mem/mhz/disk while provoking the problem to see
if anything spikes?
