We are having a problem with the Groupwise 5.5 GWIA and Border Manager 3.6. Every once in a while, the Groupwise 5.5 GWIA will keep logging into Border Manager repeatedly until the GWIA hangs. This, of course, stops all outside e-mail from coming in. The problem started out happening once every two weeks or so but has slowly gotten worse and now it's happened twice just today. We are running Netware 4.11. If anyone has any ideas please let me know! Thanks....

Yea, this issue sucks, I've had it at several client sites. All of Novell's fixes don't work all the time, expect for one.
Create a secondary domain for the GWIA and run an MTA on the same box as the GWIA. The GWIA will talk to it's own MTA, then the secondary MTA will transfer messages to the primary MTA over an IP connection. Works great, also makes it so you can use a product like GWAVA, who licneses per MTA. Make the GWIA MTA your default routing MTA and your entire mail system will be protected by products like GWAVA.
