The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400, versions 3.0, 3.2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
Version 3.x of Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400 may not be able to successfully
restart the gateway when you use a Restart Interval greater than zero. The
Restart Interval, as documented on page 89 of the Microsoft Mail Gateway to
X.400 "Administrator's Guide," determines how frequently the X400GATE program
automatically stops and restarts. The following error is displayed when the
gateway attempts to restart and fails:
ERROR 12 (restarting MTA): execv (N:\mailexe\x400gate.exe, argv) failed
The gateway may also produce an error:
ENOMEM (not enough memory)
CAUSE
=====
A message to a large number of recipients was sent prior to a restart interval.
This caused the gateway to run out of memory; thus, it was unable to start.
RESOLUTION
==========
A supported fix that corrects this problem is now available from Microsoft, but
has not been fully regression tested and should be applied only to systems
