In all of my cases of this sort of thing happening to us (which has only occurred a few times in 3 years), This has been the case with us. A simple restart of DNS services usually takes care of the problem.

Dan-

In addition to the other great suggestions made heer, check to be sure DNS is running. Imail will generally not switch to the second DNS service in the SMTP settings, so if the first server listed fails, you can get exactly the effect you describe. If you have already installed caching DNS on your mail server and set SMTP's DNS to 127.0.0.1, check that the DNS service is running. If so, recycle it. If not, start it.

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Mail Building up in IMail Spool Directory


Hello, All,
Starting at about 7:51am this morning there's been an inordinate amount of e-mail building up in my imail/spool directory. I've checked the logs and it appears that we are accepting all e-mail in to the server but not all of it is being sent out. I haven't been able to 100% confirm it but it appears that all of the e-mail which is being held so far is incoming e-mail for our Store and Forward spam filtering customers. The weird thing about it is I'm finding lots of e-mail in the spool directory that are clearly spam and will probably be identified as spam if it ever reached Declude. It's almost as if the SMTP server hasn't even attempted delivering any of this e-mail even once.

Does anyone know what could possibly be going on here? I'm aware of the IMail forum but I thought I'd try here first.

Thanks In Advance,
Dan Geiser
