I've searched and wasn't able to come up with an answer to this question. Though I did see a reference to it in the Bug Lists ( http://tinyurl.com/59gos ).
We're hitting a wall with our MySql install and our traffic is filling up all available MySql connections. We are currently working to tune our MySql install. Until that happens, I was wondering if there was a reason that vpopmail bounces all mail with a 5xx response when it can't connect to MySql.
I know that I can increase my max_connections in MySql...it just seems as if vpopmail should respond with a 4xx response so that valid mail isn't bounced.
I will admit that I am using an old version of vpopmail (5.2). If this has been fixed I'll work towards an upgrade.
Thanks in advance,

Can anybody tell me if this issue is being addressed in future releases?
I think, it is being addressed and will be incorporated in a future version.
I think, as of today, you can only try spreading the load amongst more servers, via mysql-replication.
It doesn't protect from spikes to one particular server, though.
