RE: [Declude.Virus] scanning timeout value

2003-01-22 Thread R. Scott Perry


Yes, IMail was processing mail through that period. We started receiving
messages at our desktops that did not contain any declude headers, and that
was my first indication that something was wrong. The log even shows SMTP
refusals based on entries in my kill.lst file, so I'm guessing that IMail
SMTP was up.


Do you have a C:\Declude.gp1 or C:\Declude.gp2 file, dated when this 
happened (or more recent)?

Unfortunately, I bounced the box before I did a whole lot more
investigating at the time, so I don't have much more to go on. I did pull up
the remote administrator and look at the queue, and there were many times
the usual number of items in the Waiting Items box, but only a single
message at a time in the processing items. That's not normal either. What
I failed to do was to pull up the task manager and look at the open
processes before I restarted the machine.


My guess here is that IMail's SMTPD process (which listens for incoming 
E-mail) was working, and placing files in the spool, but never starting 
Declude (or the SMTP32.exe process that IMail uses to deliver the E-mail 
after Declude is done).  That would account for why there was only 1 E-mail 
being processed (that would be the queue run that runs every 30 minutes 
or so), and a lot of E-mail in the spool.

Nope, no c:\declude.gpx files, I looked for those first. And I agree with
your conclusion about what happened, I just wish I had looked at the task
manager to see if there were a boatload of smtp32.exe processes sitting in
limbo. I'll bet there were.
