It seems to be only pop that stops working after 15 minutes, as 
messages are piling up in the Maildirs. My mail client reports:

A timeout occurred while communicating with the server. (Account: 
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]', POP3 Server: 'mail.idma.com', Error Number: 
0x800ccc19).

At which point, doing 'sh -x /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/run' 
gives me: 

tcpserver: fatal: unable to bind: address already used

My /qmail-pop3d/run file looks like:

#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
  /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup \
    idma.com /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1

Doing 'ps auxw | grep pop3' gives me:

grep pop3

Doing 'cd /var/qmail/supervise && svstat qmail-smtpd' gives me:

qmail-smtpd: up (pid 596) 1962 seconds

Doing 'ls -l ~/* | grep Maildir --after-context=4' gives me:
