[Courier-imap] Unable to connect to mysql after running awhile

[james cooke]

After running for awhile(it seem to vary) I'm getting this error:

Feb 20 03:05:47 akm authdaemond: vmysql: sql error[3]: MySQL server has gone away

If I restart authlib I'm able to connect again for awhile, then same thing occurs.

This is only with imap connections, pop3 works fine(using qmails pop3).

Any guidance would be extremely helpful.

This is on FreeBSD 5.4

Thanks
