I suspect that the mail scanner part of the McAffee update contained a new or replacement for a shared COM (.DLL) component that MS Outlook uses.
For 7.x users, have you installed the latest RH updates? My sendmail + ipop3d server on my RH 6.2 server has this problem, but my update-to-date (kernel 2.4.9-12) 7.1 box that uses postfix and QPopper does not have this problem. I do however, need to fix some reverse DNS issues I'm having with my ISP, but this may or may not have something to do with it. If anybody has any ideas on what the hell is going on, I'd sure like to know!

We suspect that it might be the McAfee anitvirus scanner update that we just downloaded yesterday. But at this point we are just guessing about the cause of the problem.

This is RH 7.2 with sendmail-8.11.6-3 and imap-2000c-15. I would expect that a sudden change like this could be caused by a DNS failure. The other end is very likely doing a reverse DNS lookup and timing out. .../Ed -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
