...until I stop the master process.
It seems that when you try to connect with pop3 a child process is
spawned as it should, but it dies unexpectedly so a new is spawned.
Could it be something as simple as permissions to access the mailbox files?
Rather than relying on log files, try to launch the master manually with
the -D flag, it may give you a more verbose output.
I tried both cyrus-imapd23 and 22 with default configurations but it
gives the same problem every time.
I have similar configuration on 6.4-RELEASE without such troubles.
Similar but not the same? Sounds like you should review again your
config files, also, the versions of cyrus-imapd on your working
installation, is that the same as the new one? Consider posting your
configs in next post.
