I too am having similar problems, Dual PII 500 256MB Tons of free space,
dedicated server. The pop3/smtp services remain active and running but
doing a telnet to port 110 gives me my welcome message but never makes it to
the point where entering a username is possible. Since the service is still
running, monitor and other 3rd party utils think it's still it's working.
Stopping and restarting the service clears it up....for a while.

> Often, 2 -5 times each day all the service seem to die on the mail server.
> POP3 sessions stall, Web messaging sits for 10-15 minutes trying to login.

10%

need
