The problem does not really lie with courier.
All qmail processes run under tcpserver and are only invoked when a
connection appears.
courier has this authdaemon that maintains persistent connections to
mysql via the vpopmail library and so its behaviour is different from
being run under tcpserver in qmail-smtpd or qmail-pop3d.
This is why it appears that courier is the problem but it actually is
not. It is just that courier has a different way of being run and this
was not taken into account by vpopmail because none of the relevant
qmail processes run persistently.
