My experience with the pop daemon is that it *never* commits suicide
unless 
the POP3D_CHILD_MAX_CONNECTS variable is set to its default as defined
in 
pop3.h, i.e. 1500 (which is not the same as the default value as set in
the 
default dbmail.conf). Before I changed it to 1500 the number of open
files 
owned by the pop daemon kept growing. Eventually resulting in a 'too
many 
open files" error locking up the system.
Now I see the occasional "committing suicide" notice and the number of
open 
files stays at a healthy level. I'm still figuring out if the same thing
goes 
for the imap daemon.

I'm not sure if this has been dealt with in the CVS since I'm running
the RC3 
version (on FreeBSD 4.6.2-RELEASE) and haven't gotten around to looking
into 
that. 

Regards,

Erwin
