We switched to the single On-board Intel and setting aside that it cannot handle as many connections, It seems to run smoothly.
We are going to try a dual-port Intel Server card (teamed with FEC).. I like cards that have Checksum processing capabilities.. As it has been stated by others in this thread, It can Really save on CPU resources. We will also be experimenting with having the Server card on a completely independent PCI Bus.

I know this is a recurring issue - my NT box bluescreens the moment anyone tries to access mail using a POP3 client. My guess is it's the fault of the cheap off-brand NIC I have in the box....
Before getting flamed, I just finished going thru the archives looking for threads on NICs. I found plenty of info on problems w/3COM, Intel chipsets, gigabit cards, and Linksys cards.
Perhaps my old eyes gave out from the strain, but I swear I could not find a DEFINITIVE solution or a recommendation for a PROVEN working NIC.
My question is: Can Scott or any of the other IMail gurus here recommend a NIC that is a proven winner w/Imail under NT? This is not a heavily taxed server so it doesn't need to be a top-of-the-line model.....just reliable for IMail services.
Thanks!!!
