[gentoo-server] courier-imapd have to be restarted to much time

[Claudinei Matos]

Hi,

I've installed postfix to work with my domain using vmail with courier
imap (I've followed gentoo guide) and it was working fine until today.
Now I have some users (including me) that can't get new messages
'cause the mail software (thunderbird) keep tring to connect to the
server and doesn't get any messages.
I did ssh at the server and saw that the new messages are at the user
.maildir. I also give a look at /var/log/messages and when I try to
get my mails, my connection trying is not registered at the logs. If I
try users try to send a mail, these mail are sent without a problem.
So I give a try to restart courier-imapd and I could get my messages
again but 30 minutes later the problem turn back but a little bit
differente, 'cause this time the users can't read the messages, but
all the users can see the list of messages, so I have to restart
courier-imapd again.
At the logs I get no warning or error messages. I'm freaking out with
this problem and I thinking if I could redirect the messages delivered
to my domain to a local network server (today the mail server is
hosted in a hosting company with my web and dns server).


Tks in any advice,

Claudinei Matos
