I have exact this problem from time to time.
But i have no dialup-user, only LAN connections (100Mbit)
Mostly it starts with a big mail around 4 or 5 MByte. As i can reproduce
this problem by copying the problem mailbox to other users an get the
same error from different machines, i think it is a problem of qpopper to.
The clients are mostly outlook [97/98/200].
The only solution i found is to delete the "problem"-mail from the users
mailbox. If this occurs it does not help to set the timeout of the
clients to greater values.
