Package: ipopd-ssl
Version: N/A; reported 2005-02-11
Severity: important

Client tries to connect and I see in logs something like

pop3s SSL service init from 192.168.1.215

but that is all. The client reports failure in connection and that it 
was refused by the server.

The problem is that the corresponding processes ipop3d does not exit
but remains and can be listed with ps auxf | grep pop

root     26622  0.0  0.0  4016 1592 ?        S<   Feb10   0:00  \_ipop3d
root     30559  0.0  0.0  4012 1592 ?        S<   Feb10   0:00  \_ipop3d

Moreover as there is a limit on connections pre source in xinetd when
such processes acumulate it results into denial of service for that
client. (Yes this can be changed but that is not a solution)

Note that this happens only when the client is connected to the internet
with a gsm edge card. That is via mobile operator.
If he is connected with wireless or cable everything is O.K.
