hi,

I have a working installation of courier-imap with an ldap backend.
It all seems to work fine.

I have noticed however, that sometimes (very seldom) POP3 login to the
server would fail. After some investigation, I have also noticed that
usually this happens when I am doing something on the server. Say run
"make" command in apache or php directory.

The auth failure should not be related to server load, as at the end
of compile time, the load average is around 1.00. So I decided to
trace the source of the problem. It appears that a search in LDAP
database fails and returns no results in those particular moments.

Did anyone have similar issues?

here is debug log:
