Blackberry Server problems, user cannot send email

Hi guys.

Our Blackberry Server stopped allowing mail to be sent. All tests pass in the server configuration app. We are running Blackberry Server 4.1.4.3 on SBS 2003. Error log says that Blackberry Agent Controller Stopped. There is one user on this system. They can receive messages but not send. This was working fine until this morning. I'm reluctant to dive in and mess things up when it was a perfectly working system. We did not install any updates or make any changes in the last 24 hours.

Blackberry Log:
[20000] (03/06 15:34:17.953):{0x484} LogReceiver: Failed to bind a socket
[10000] (03/06 15:34:17.953):{0x484} Could not start the syslog receiver subsystem, exiting...

Thank you so much for the detailed response. The issue was with the service book on the BB. Once removed and rebooted the client was able to send email.

Good to know. I've heard of re-sending the service book as a a shotgun fix, and have used that as a tool in the past to fix sync issues. It hasn't worked for me regarding sending e-mail, but I'm glad it did the trick in this case.
