I'm not sure of exact cause but I'm getting fairly regular coredumps 
from XMail on NetBSD-3.0. Whist the fd-open files issue on my FreeBSD 
setup isn't apparent it is still an annoyance and if anything was a 
little more frequent, 2 - 3 days vs 2 - 3 weeks.

I've been able to produce a coredump by a kernel compile and have 
noticed that attempting to send to multiple domains or make multiple 
pop3 connections. This was apparent to a much lesser extent on 
FreeBSD. NetBSD server has 64 MB ram and vmstat has avm = 35332 fre = 
7976 whilst FreeBSD one has 128 MB with avm = 47528 and fre = 25464.

So my best guess was a problem memory and reducing the values of 
SmtpMinVirtMemSpace and Pop3MinVirtMemSpace from 10000 to 5000 in 
steps of 1000 seems to confirm this. At around 8000 an improvement in 
that starting a kernel compile didn't produce an immediate coredump 
and at 7000 some compiles completed and so far at 5000 I've not had a 
coredump.

So are SmtpMinVirtMemSpace and Pop3MinVirtMemSpace where the problem 
lies and if so what values should I be using or could eliminating the 
problem require adjusting one of the NetBSD memory sysctls?
