Identified

We are aware of an issue reported by multiple customers with mail flow stopping and a "'GfiAvRoutingAgent' exceeded X milliseconds while handling event 'OnSubmittedMessage' Error".

If you are experiencing this issue, please be advised that we are busy investigating this with the highest priority and will provide formal updates via https://status.gfi.com as we progress.

The current workaround is to disable the Avira AntiVirus engine in order to re-establish the mailflow while the issue is investigated.
