Hello Paul and others, I have a pretty serious issue with dbmail-lmtpd.
Dbmail is 2.3.6, MySQL is 5.1.50 and OS is Freebsd 8.something. The problem is that lmtpd (and only lmtpd) keeps growing and growing in memory usage. Usually after 2 or 3 days it's 2 or 3 GB big, the server runs out of swap space thus Freebsd kills the lntpd process to avoid a system melt up. The server is pretty low loaded. Maybe 5 domains with a TOTAL of approximately 45 mailboxes. After the first times It happened I fought there may be a broken db or something so I ran dbmail-util -ay various times in a row (6/7 times) and every time it found someone broken, orphane messages and such, but after 7 maybe 8 consequent execution everything seemed to go ok and thus if I run it now it doesn't report any problem any more. I also thought about any drive/innodb issue so i run an optimize table on all the tables in the dbmail db (also to generate a new .idb file), still the problem persists. I dont't know, it seems like a bug to me, also because the server worked perfectly for about one year and now in two days the process gets huge. Is there any way i can investigate why lmtpd is taking all this memory? The server is not very privacy-critical so, Paul if you are curious to investigate deeper I can also give you ssh access to the machine.
