Worse than that, I had problems with getting mail at all, even when
reconnecting.  The IMAP clients would just "hang" and never report any
errors.  The log had a dearth of information.  This would all start
after about 24-48 hours of usage by about 120 users.

I never tracked down exactly what caused it, and I couldn't duplicate it
after taking the server out of production, but I would recommend using a
different distribution.

Hope that helps,
