Now if I connect to the courier server I get on its console: ----8<----------------------------------------------------------------- __alloc_pagee: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0xf0/0)
You're out of memory.
VM: killink process imapd ----8<----------------------------------------------------------------- Wierd thing, since I get the same error on my AMD Sempron 2200+ (3 Gbyte memory) running Sarge too. Where can ths message come from and WHY?
This is a kernel message, complaining that you're out of memory. Yes, you said you said you had 3GB, but that's what this message means.
Run 'top' in another terminal window, and see what it says.
Note 2: Installing FAM is NO SOLUTION since it increase the Load-Average to over 12 and my System is for hours not more responsive. Any solutions?
The solution is always to fix the problem, not the symptoms. To do that, you need to identify what the problem is. First of all, FAM has been replaced by Gamin, use that instead.
Second, you need to use some basic admin skills to analyze what's going on your servers. Looking at the end results -- the server complaining that it's out of memory, and the CPU is getting pegged -- and trying to guess why, is not going to work. Do not guess. Figure it out. Use top, ps, and other tools until you understand what's going on your system, and what's eating all that memory and CPU.
