I'm glad to know that I wasn't alone, even though I was positive I was not. It was a bad ClamAV version that they shipped. I replaced it with a more current version (it was .80.7 or some really old version). Then it was working again without it dying on it's own or anything.3) ClamAV. Do note how much email I said we dealt with a minute. We didn't get a great deal of email. Maybe 2000 email a day? Not overly much. However as the ClamAV database would grow, if you restarted ClamAV or Zimbra eventually it would take too long for ClamAV to start and would not listen on the port assigned and would make mail fail to deliver. (Ouch huh?)In defense of CLAMAV I can say that we run it on our SMTP server (not on the IMAP or groupware server which seems like a bad idea). It works well and is pretty stable. If your CLAMAV was causing you this problem then Zimbra must have boloxed the setup or you just had a bad version. Scott |
