Hi,

Sometimes my users cannot log into their mailboxes. A test telnet
authorizations hangs after LOGIN command and gets an abort connection in
a while.

strace user's imapd process shows that something wrong with the FAM
server:

  PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
17896 ?        S      0:00 /usr/sbin/courier-imapd Mail
18121 ?        S     47:30 /usr/libexec/gam_server

# strace -s200 -f -p 17896

connect(4, {sa_family=AF_UNIX,
sun_path=@"/tmp/fam-u443612-\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0
+\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"},
110) = ? ERESTARTSYS (To be restarted if SA_RESTART is set)
--- SIGALRM {si_signo=SIGALRM, si_code=SI_KERNEL} ---
write(2, "Timeout initializing the FAM library. Your FAM library is
broken.\n", 66) = 66
getpid()                                = 17896
kill(17896, SIGKILL)                    = ?
+++ killed by SIGKILL +++

After killing user's gam_server process a mailbox works fine.

I know my imapd is not fresh but I did not find about this behavior in
any release notes.

Is this bug fixed? or it is not related to courier-imap? Maybe
someone knows any workarounds or how can I check that the gam_server
process
is still working?

Thanks in advance for any help!
