Will,

It is possible that this is not a Declude issue.

We had a similar problem years ago with an earlier version of Imail, even before we began using Declude. It turned out that there has been an ongoing bug in Imail about the entry of multiple DNS servers into the SMTP setup page. They say you can enter several IPs separated by spaces, but if you do this, IMail occasionally gets confused and basically stops looking at DNS entirely. This results in quick buildup in the spool and the kind of problems you describe.

The cure is to run cache-only DNS locally on the server. Just install the service, set it for Automatic, turn it on, point IMail to 127.0.0.1,an stop/start the IMail SMTP service. This will result in improved performance because all your DNS lookups won't go over your network. You can point the local DNS to your other servers by entering their addresses into DNS in the Network | TCP/IP property sheet.
