I seem to have this problem twice on the latest installation. Unfortunately my customer reboots the system when he receives this error, so I had no chance to investigate the problem.
I think, a timeout of the db connection could be the reason, possibly the
authentication daemon does not reconnect automatically.
I have found this information:

Hi all!
My latest qmail-toaster install has really lead me into some late work…
I keep receiving a “vmysql: sql error[3]: MySQL server has gone away” in
/var/log/qmail/authlib/current. I check for the mysqld status and it is
working – I can in deed connect to the database!
Also at the same time I receive an “INFO: LOGIN FAILED,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
ip=[aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd]” in /var/log/qmail/imap4/current.
The users keep getting a login failed message in their IMAP clients and
get disconnected.
I googled for this and everything I found was something related to the
location of mysqld.sock and suggesting than a soft link is created: done
that but with no results…
Has anyone gone through the same situation?
I’m running a Fedora Core 5 machine.
Thanks in advance,
FA
