The issue is that if the service cannot create the spool files the threads will block trying to do that and you will see memory grow, the thread count grow beyond your Max setting (default 60) and the server once all the worker threads are blocked, does not do anything until you kill it.

RE: [IMail Forum] OT: Free or extremly cheap desktop AV software
I would use NOD32. We have been running a test on our TS server. Why are we planning on switching from Symantec? Simple no over head. Between all the major AVs it was NOD32 or a Russian AV that I can’t remember the name off the top of my head. Symantec scans network drives and for 50+ users on a TS server all on the same drive and 50+ connections from users + Symantec trying to scan those 50+ connections that is a lot of traffic that there is not a need for. It is slow when it is scanning files, and just other things. The price is nice at 17$ per client if buying 50 server/workstations with a 2 year agreement.

RE: [IMail Forum] White List
My understanding is that the white list only excludes content filtering. To exclude from all the filtering, you would want to add the IP address of the mail server to your trusted IP address.

RE: [IMail Forum] My company is in the URL domain blacklist
I wonder if anyone has a good "whitelist" to share. Using antispamseeder with the -l -e switches you can exclude urls from the list. There is a utility by curt turner on ipswitch site which helps do the same But removing all of the bad listings in the Ipswitch blacklist takes a lot of time. If someone has already "fixed" the ipswitch list and has a comprehensive whitelist it sure would be a timesaver. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jon Sent: Thursday, May 19, 2005 8:09 PM To: imail_forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: [IMail Forum] My company is in the URL domain blacklist Hi everyone, I just started to implement the built-in spam filter in Imail. I downloaded the latest zip file and was looking through the URL domain blacklist text file and the company I work for, Xanga.com, is on it. We don't send out spam, we send out email subscriptions because our users signs up for them. I'm curious how did my company ended up on there. I think I read it somewhere that Ipswitch doesn't maintain the list. I just want everyone to know that we don't send out spam and don't block us please.
