Sorry about the messages folks, but our virus scanner threw a wobbly and started sending virus alerts for every mail that came in (or went out). I've since found the problem and bashed it into shape. The problem stemmed from a message that had an attached infected file called .bat (that's right, only an extension). This caused the scanner to throw up it's hands in horror and reject all mail. Not too bad as it's functioned perfectly for the last four odd years (still not good enough though).

I've got hundreds of messages to now sift through and release, as well as many apologies to make :-(
