There is no problem.  Google "TIME_WAIT", and the first result is an 
excellent description:

My guess is that you're using LDAP for your user info (NSS) in addition 
to Courier, and you're not using nscd.  Using nscd will greatly improve 
performance, and reduce the number of connections that your systems make 
to your LDAP servers.

If your 3 servers all hung up, there was probably an issue with the LDAP 
servers, not the clients.  Reducing load will probably make that happen 
less often, but I'd recommend using more reliable LDAP servers (such as 
Red Hat's or Sun's).
