That doesn't really explain your problem, but if you
are running an imapd from inetd and have enough users,
you will certainly run into the default spawn limit
of 256 connections in 60 seconds.

Try cranking that up to a sensible number for your
environment (nowait.2048 or something).

php has some system limits in php.ini , maybe you're hitting one of them ? any clues in you php_error log ?

BTW, if you're only running imap for the benefit of locally hosted squirrelmail, then you can use an inetd.conf line like:

127.0.0.1:imap stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/ imapd imapd

for increased security.
