    Sorry to respond to my own message. I know you guys hate that but I have
    info I forgot to add.
    We are running Exchange 5.5. Also the messages are not all being
    duplicated. Most of the duplicated messages match the originals. At least 1
    was duplicated 800 kb larger than the first one. There are no attachments.
    Any ideas? The server is pegging 100% while it sorts through a zillion
    backed up messages.
    Management seems to believe that we have been hit by a virus but the lack of
    attachments and known e-mail headers makes me disbelieve that. Their next
    thought is McAfee Groupshield has problems. The only changes to that product
    I have been able to drag out of the administrator for that machine is a .dat
    update to 4.0.4174 Tuesday night.
    I have an e-mail in to McAfee on this. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Does anyone know of an issue with Microsoft Exchange server where the server
    is slowed down significantly and some messages are sent out a second time an
    hour or more after the original?

    Running Exchange on NT 4 with MacAfee Groupshield 4.1.50 engine, 4.0.4174
    dat file.

    Thanks!
