Re: POP3 -- DOMINO400

Chris,

This has been happening for some time.  I will check on the polling
intervals from the BB side.  A BES server is a thought but I want to
exhaust every other angle.  Thanks for your post.

How often are these pop clients polling for new mail? I guess it's being
controlled by the BB internet client that was setup for each user. I don't
think there's a way to change the polling interval there.

When did this start happening? Was a new BB user setup the day before? If
so, is that mail file really large or are there a lot of "unread" messages
in that file when you login with the notes ID file?

Have you thought of a BES?  :)

I was wondering if anyone could help with a problem we are experiencing
with our POP3.  Throughout the day, it is at least 75 %CPU

utilization(see

below) and sometimes jumps up to 95+ %.  We have about 1000 normal email
users with about 125 blackberry users that use POP3.   At times, we do
experience mail routing issues because the SERVER job gets so little of

the

CPU%(because POP3 is eating it all up).  Any suggests would be

appreciated.


A few questions:
1. Has anyone run into this issue?
2. Is this ok?   Doesn't seem like it should be this high.
3. Is there some setting changes we could make to lower this?

Some stats ....

This server is relatively newer
810
8GB Memory
38% of DASD used out of 500GB


 Opt  Subsystem/Job  User        Type  CPU %  Function        Status
        POP3         QNOTES      BCI    75.3  PGM-POP3         SELW
        SERVER       QNOTES      BCI    15.4  PGM-SERVER       SELW
