Its a brand new server, just installed a couple days ago. This issue
doesn't only happen with one account either, it happens at random with
every account that I have tried now. (about 20) 

My only guess at this point is an issue with my hardware Raid1 setup.
Perhaps the reads are being distributed from drive to drive, and one
drive has an issue? Seems pretty far fetched that I wouldn't be seeing
similar issues with MySQL, or PGSQL, or LDAP, or Apache (which are all
running also), if this was the case though.

I wonder if bad ram could be causing it... Again though, weird that I'm
only seeing issues with Courier.

I don't see any errors in the logs. But isn't the chdir() call well past
the MySQL auth portion of the code? If MySQL was returning bad results,
or failing in some manner, Courier should never get to this point
correct?
