Sneha,
I'm sure that if you search the IBM System i technical sites, you can find
this information.
My company sells an email solution for the System i called WebReport/400
and we've had a number of customers who have run into this issue. We've
documented it with the following article at our customer service faq
website:

This might be helpful for you as well and it gives a better description of
how to construct your *LIST entries.

Thanks Rich.
Is there an IBM or any Technical Documentation for the two cases you mentioned below which you can send me.
I need this for convincing the change control committee before making the changes.

Sneha,
It looks like a spammer has hijacked your SMTP server and is
routing email through your system. The quick fix is to just shut down
the SMTP server:
ENDTCPSVR *SMTP
After you shut it down, run the CHGSMTPA command (Change SMTP
Attributes) and prompt it with the F4 function key. Roll up until you
see the parameter that allows relayed mail. It is probably set to
*ALL. Changing it to *NONE will shut down any spammers attempting to
relay mail through your server.
If, however, you are using the SMTP server to send email messages
from your system (using SNDDST, for example), then you will have to
change the parameter to *LIST and construct a valid accept relay entry
that is set for just the IP address of your system.

Quoting sneha verma [7]<snehaverma001@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
Hi,
I am on V5R4.The following SMTP jobs are consuming very high CPU:
QTSMTPSRVD
QTSMTPCLTD
QTSMTPBRCL
QTSMTPBRSR
Due to these jobs the overall CPU touches 250 %. with users complaining of
slow performance.
Please can anyone help me with providing a fix for this.
Regards
Sneha
