I was curious that if the apparent problem are scripts checking email 700 times a second, would it not make sense to simply stop/block that behavior/command until a patch is issued?
Call me crazy but it's what I would do as sysadmin for Second Life.
Then again, I only joined a few days ago so what does a newbee who uses other email applications to check email know?
And as requested by the SL application, I'm attaching my log file to help the developers determine why I keep getting result #7.

Morphy, this file would be best attached in an email to [email]support@secondlife.com[/email] after you've let them know in advance of the surrounding circumstances -- I wanted to let you know it contains your REAL NAME too, I don't know if that was intentional or not but I can't message you on here and I'm not inworld right now, so just wanted to let ya know about that.

Morphy, just so you know, the inworld objects that send and receive E-mail are not there to check the E-mail of the user. What they do is send and receive E-mails to and from websites and other inworld objects. This is how if say you buy a new shirt for your av off a vendor website, SL knows to give it to you.
I do agree with you that some measure needs to be taken to stop these things from demanding so much resource, but shutting them down is not a viable answer. That would cripple many businesses and other projects that rely on object E-mail.
