Hi,
I'm having an odd pop problem that just started this week.
We are using the Maildir format
We have a nfs spool to store all mail. all mail transaction machines mount
the nfs spool.
We are using the qmail-popup program from the 1.03 distribution
Currently the nfs spool and the mounting transaction machines are about 1
second off from each other. We used to have them running ntpd to keep in
sync, but after an extended power outtage, ntp ceased to function properly
and we are not sure why.
Symptoms: Client will start to pop out email and it would freeze and time
out during download and give an error (as usual, it's a pain to get clients
to specify exactly what the error is).
Email Clients Used: Most occuring from Outlook Express, one occurance from
Netscape Mail so far
Original thought later dismissed: We know that Nortons 2000 sometimes times
out while scanning email - most of the clients noting this error were either
running another virus scanner or (ugh) not running one at all.
Questions:
Does anyone have any thoughts as to what this could be?
Also as a side note - are there any ntp wizards out there who might be able
to help me with my ntp snafu?
