Hello all,

I have a trouble with my two mail servers where the users's maildir are. I use
Courier Authdaemon with PAM_LDAP authenticating against a M$ Active Directory
to serve imap, pop3 and maildrop. More than 8.000 accounts. The MTA is Postfix
looking up for users in M$ AD directly.

Each 30 days I have to reboot both servers because the memory is all used.
There's no cache memory, buffers or something else. I already tried echo 3 >
.../drop_caches

But with top or htop there's no process consuming more than 0,1% of memory (I
have 8GB of RAM).

If I stop all process, the memory stills is full, and I already tried to leave
all process stopped more than 1 hour and the memory keeps all used.

I think it's a memory leak.

My servers are Debian Etch with:

ii  courier-authdaemon               0.58-4                                  
Courier authentication daemon
ii  courier-authlib                  0.58-4                                  
Courier authentication library
ii  courier-base                     0.53.3-5                                
Courier Mail Server - Base system
ii  courier-imap                     4.1.1.20060828-5                        
Courier Mail Server - IMAP server
ii  courier-imap-ssl                 4.1.1.20060828-5                        
Courier Mail Server - IMAP over SSL
ii  courier-maildrop                 0.53.3-5                                
Courier Mail Server - Mail delivery agent
ii  courier-pop                      0.53.3-5                                
Courier Mail Server - POP3 server
ii  courier-pop-ssl                  0.53.3-5                                
Courier Mail Server - POP3 over SSL
ii  courier-ssl                      0.53.3-5                                
Courier Mail Server - SSL/TLS Support

How could I confirm that memory is used by a process A or B?
Could It be something with Courier? Some trouble with Courier + PAM + MS AD
integration?

Thanks for any help ( I still have 12 days before next needed boot :( )
