Summary:                    IMAPD stops accepting new connections after a while.
Description: 
Hello,

I have issues with the IMAPD, it stops responding to new connections, and
I have to stop the IMAPD deamons and start it again.

I had this issue since last night with 2.0.4, I upgraded to 2.0.7 but I
still get same problem.

I use Postfix and MySQL 5.0.12

this is not a bug, it's a feature.

SM will keep the imap connections open during the session. Your
MAXCHILDREN is set to 10. So at 10 concurrent SM logins your process pool
is depleted.

Increase MAXCHILDREN.

Before concluding there is a bug, please verify that dbmail is not
accepting connections even though there really are idle processes.

Hello Paul,

Sorry I didn't know it's not a bug since I'm not a sysy admin, beside I
was watching the tail -f var/log/messages beside tail -f var/log/maillog 
and never got warning msg from the IMAP it has reached the max
connections.

Could you please tell me what is the maximum MAXCHILDREN could I put in
the dbmail.conf?

And how can I check the idle processes?

You can increase MAXCHILDREN to however much connections your database will
suffer. There's currently a hard-coded upper limit of 200
(HARD_MAX_CHILDREN) defined in pool.h.
