Under your domain name  (based on your email), I performed several tests to make sure you are not an open relay, and it seems you aren't .
 
with that said, only thing I can think of is that you are suffering a huge dictionary attack and that infor is -of course- being logged.
 
Probably "Verbose Logging" is on and for sure that increases the amount of logs.
 
but to grow from 4 Mb to 1.5 gig is amazing..
 
if this is growing by the minute, rename de log file and wait for the log to create it self again for the current day.. wait a few minutes and open de log to see the log and study it.. It will sure give you hints about what is causing such growth.
 
Another possibility is that you have users with viruses and they are using your smtp server -big time- probably the virus is not going any where if you have an internal antivirus (Imail) but the information is logged anywayh
.
just my two cents.

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] iMail Sys Log Files are growing out of control

I apologize if this is OT; but this is the best support group I know of for emergency situations, and I have one.  Starting one week ago today (slept 13th), my iMail Sysxxx.txt log files began to grow out of control.  Files, that for several years have averaged around 4Mb in size, suddenly jumped to about 1.5 Gig per day and have remained there.  I found out about this when my server reported running out of Volume space on the log file partition (which has 15Gig assigned to it) this morning!  These files are so large that I can’t even open them!

 

Nothing has changed on the server that I am aware of.  Has anyone seen this behavior before or have any suggestion?

 

Thanks in advance for any help anyone might be able to provide.

 

Wolf
