DBMail 3.1.13 has been available in ports since 23 May 2014. You should
be able to get an updated ports tree with portsnap fetch update.
I am pleased to confirm that DBMail on FreeBSD is more stable and
reliable with 3.1.13.

Thanks. Unfortunately 3.1.13 hasn't been received yet in freebsd's ports. I'll
apply the nightly restart and will take a look at dovecot in the meantime..
Thanks.

So, the question is.... How much ram should dbmail imapd allocate
normally? Is it possible that there's some kind of memleak there?
Should I arrange some kind of automatic restart at night?
Dbmail 3.1.12
The amount of allocated memory should be pretty stable. If you see increasing
amounts, chances are you hit a leak. Since you run 3.1.12, I would call that a
certainty. Upgrade to 3.1.13 since that fixed a significant leak.

In general, it is advisable to put an imap proxy in front of dbmail. Nginx and
Dovecot are known to provide better networking behavior under adverse
conditions, i.e. mis-behaving tcp connections. Dbmail has been getting better
at those, but better be safe than sorry.
And yes, a restart every night is cheap and fast. No reason not to do it. If
that is in conflict with your HA policy, put a HA-Proxy instance in front, and
do rolling restarts.
Paul.
