Hi,<br />
<br />
Although Exchange 2003 SP1 is mean't to fix the badmail issue I'm not sure what version you are talking about. Each time I've seen this happen it was due to the old e-mail in the badmail folder being re-submitted after the reboot. I solved the issue by routinely cleaning up the badmail folder using this tool.<br />

I have seen this happen with antivirus applications that have held on to the messages and only release them when the server is rebooted. <br />
It could also be the greylisting bug. <br />

It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
