the warnings are daily... on sarge unless on etch yesterday in a testing machine I had a hang of courier and had to restart it by hand, but today have started mysqld_safe with --wait_timeout=345600 and haven't seen today any warning and courier has logged properly... I'm gonna check the two solutions... the wait_timeout increasing and the vmysql.patch... (that I think it come from vpopmail 5.4.17 to more newer...)
