MAXCHILDREN limits how many connection can be established concurrently. Because any imap connection requires one child. MAXCONNECTS defines after how many connections a child gets killed. If i understand it right, one dbmail process can get very big(memory), when you deliver a big message. The memory used by a process get's only freeed completly, when the process terminates. This is what happens after MAXCONNECTS. At least i think so... :-) -- Lars Kneschke Metaways Infosystems GmbH Pickhuben 4 20457 Hamburg Germany
