I have the same problem from time to time as well. I am using 3.1 and when
it happens on our server ps aux shows the session is still active even
though the user has disconnected and is talking to me on the phone. There is
also a .username.pop file in /var/spool/mail. Eventually it goes away or I
kill the process and then they get the mail without any problem. Our server
is running Redhat 6.0 and qpopper is in server mode. Also the server now
seems to generate a lot of BOGUS.username files now as well.
Thanks,
Frank Beale
