Very possible. Further testing seems to indicate the 2.0.4 also has the problem, it just hasn't presented itself quite as bad. I think the problem I'm seeing is that it's running out of memory and getting killed. If it doesn't get killed, then it seems to work fine. I regularly see dbmail-imapd using over 200mb. I am using a mix of mozilla and evolution as the primary clients, but I'm pretty sure that I've seen the symptom with both. I'll see if I can test with valgrind here, although I have a feeling that with the usual memory explosion I won't have enough space to run it. We'll see... -- Nathan > > > > Matthew T.
