Hi,
1. I have about 20 email accounts I check several times a day from
different websites. Those are just POP accounts (I use my ISP's SMTP
server to send email). Several times a day I am prompted by Outlook
2003 to enter my password. I just click OK without changing anything
and then it all works fine. I am 101% confident there is nothing wrong
with the passwords. But it is annoying to be asked several times a
day. I also have a few clients who complain about this. Perhaps the
mailserver is affected by the server load (altough I only get messages
that the server is heavily used occasionally). Most of the time it's
OK (right now the 1 Minute Load Average is 0.23 and the 15 Minute Load
Average is 0.11).
2. I have the impression some email fails altough it seems to be just
spam. I get emails in the admin account with subject: Postmaster
notify: see transcript for details. They are spam mails sent to an
existing email addres such as info (at mark) vsite.tld but still they seem to
fail. They bounce back to the spammer's email address which is most of
the time fake so they end up as failed messages in my admin mailbox. I
ask myself if this is OK or if this is a result of really something
being wrong with the mail server?
Brgds,
Reginald
