LSTSRV-L, Have a strange problem that started right after my last lsoft upgrade on march 9th. i installed the newest update. Anyway here is what is going on the lsmtp console is showing about 7000 messages in and out a minute, and showing a constant 180 smtp in and out connections. Top thread count has reached the 500 mark and usually stays around 110 So first reaction we are being attacked. Checked the firewall at the server level nothing coming in to that particular server. checked with our rack hosting company and they see nothing abnormal. completely disconnected lsmtp from lsoft and shutdown lsoft services and the connections continued to climb. we have lsmtp logs in the range of 2 gigs per day. So it appears that something internally with lsmtp is sending messages within itself from the server. also the domains that are making the multiple connections are showing localhost.ultrarpm.com and localhost.fabulous.com over and over again however like i said they are not coming from outside they are coming from within the machine -- Tim
