Hello,
Is restarting the mta a permanent fix or temporary? I have restarted the
servers several times since they were configured so I am not sure that this
solution really addresses the long term problem.

I read that q-article and it disucces udp and tcp... I have never heard of
such a problem prior to Windows Server 2003... I am leary of changing my
metabase to fix this error...

Thanks
