If you are losing connection to an IMAP client it is your IMAP server which has the issue not Postfix. Which IMAP server are you using?
Does this happen at the same time every day? If so your IMAP server may have a cron job, or an entry in /etc/logrotate.d which is 'tidying up' every day and restarting the server. derek On Thursday 07 Nov 2002 1:59 pm, Kenn Murrah wrote: > Greetings. > > > I've just set up a postfix mail server on an Engarde > (community) Linux box ...
