Hi Folks, We did some Exchange server maintenance this weekend.  Defragged 
the information store, and set up both NICs as link aggregate (previously we 
were only using 1 NIC).  All appears to be working well, except when I came 
into work this morning, I found some email errors (outbound attempts from 
jobs on the HP3000).  Now, we're seeing one intermittent errors which I'm not 
able to reproduce, and one error which I can produce at will.  We're on MPE 
6.5 pp2 and would appreciate any guidance.  Thx!

1.  Not yet reproducible (don't know what's causing this or how to reproduce):

  %  mail.cobnmp "-m listftr6.pub -t [log in to unmask]" 
  Jul 23 07:31:51 mail[288] SendSocket: IPCSEND: CRITICAL ERROR PREVIOU 
SLY REPORTED; MUST SHUTDOWN SOCKET.  (SOCKERR 34) 
  Program terminated in an error state. (CIERR 976) 
          
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^

2.  Reproducible.  Why does this work:

echo this is a test>t1
mail.cobnmp "-h zurg -to [log in to unmask] -m t1 -s 'email OK'"

But this fails.  The command just waits and waits, until I break out of it:

echo this is a test>t
mail.cobnmp "-h zurg -to [log in to unmask] -m t -s 'email hang'"

The only difference is that the temp message file is 2 characters (success) vs 
1 character (hang/fail) We've never (not to my knowledge) had this problem 
before.  When I look in Glance/iX, the wait state is CONS (what is that?)
