Reboot your mail servers

A number of users have reported inability to receive email. Sending email works fine but receiving does not. In multiple tests against multiple sites, both protected by ExchangeDefender and not, we have seen nearly 60% connection drops.

At this point we believe this is related to the latest Microsoft patches - and a simple reboot appears to clear out the issue of no port 25 connectivity. Don’t worry, ExchangeDefender is holding your email. It does not appear to be fixed by removing the patches and reapplying them.

As our friend Susan Bradley just told me via IM: “Full moon passing”
