Hi!
I have Exim mail server under FreeBSD 4.X (stable) and use DBMail from
version 1.1 to current 1.2.7b.
With any version of DBMail I have the same problem - size of dbmail-pop3d
process grow up until all
free memory and swap isn't filled. After this system freeze (~ after 20
hours).

Trace level of pop3d is 5. I don't see any errors or warnings in log.
