We had similar problems with Exchange 2000 and Groupshield 6.0. That was
2 yrs ago though. The problem started immediately after upgrading from
GS 5.2 to GS6. Contacted McAfee, and they provided a couple of patches
that did not help at all. Finally, McAfee asked us to downgrade to GS
5.2 again. Since then we have been stable, and haven't even thought
about upgrading to any new version of Groupshield. We are currently
running Exchange 2003 Ent in cluster mode, with GS 5.2. Honestly, I am
not a fan of McAfee Grousphield.

Thanks Mark,
 
It is in combination with McAfee enterprise, just not sure what version.
Please Please please, if you do come accross the reg key, please let us
know. Those this error lie with MCAfee or MS? Any plans to release a
patch soon?

        Hi guys,
         
        We had the same problem about 2 months ago. After repeated
contact with microsoft it turned out to be the AntiVirus anyway, though
i had stopped the services. I read below that you are using groupshield.
is this in combination with McAfee 8.0i enterprise? Microsoft pointed me
out to an entry in thje registry which we needed to disable.. and from
the moment I changed the entrie the pending submission queue was
processed again.
        I only regret that I dont know anymore which entry it was.
Stupid..
         
        Hope this helps you out a bit..
         
        With kind regards,

        We have a similiar problem.
        Mails get stuck in the following queues:
        -          Messages awaiting directory lookup
        -          Messages pending submission
         
        I can't find a system in the crashes/hangs...( they are not on
regular basis)
         
        In out case it is the inetinfo (IIS) process that hangs, and
crashes when trying to stop the services.
        We opened a case and are working with Microsoft to find a
solution.
        I already installed a lot of debugging tools that collected a
lot of logs, but it seems to be not easy to point to the problem...
         
        It seems to me that SMTP becomes irresponsive in 'a certain
condition', some kind of mail that messes up SMTP ???
         
        What I do to come quick online without robooting:
        -          Kill inetinfo.exe
        -          Resart services
         
        If we find some solution I'll let you know...

        I would also turn diagnostic logging to max for all counters for
transport and report back your events. Do you recall anything being
updated installed or changed?

        All services are running, and we have tried disabling Mc Afee,
but no joy. Mails just seem to get stuck in the queue. The only way to
get some of them moving is to reboot the server. Even trying to restart
the sntp service would throw the server into an unresponsive state.
         
        This is getting pretty dire, and I am not quite sure what the
problem is. I have instructed a reinstallation of Exch 2003 sp2. From
what I can see the smtp service is not working as smoothly as I would
want. Just wondering if it corrupt? I just dont know.
