Maybe because it couldn't figure out the database already exists (due to max_connections error)? > Or is it just the limit set by max_connections being reached?

Ask your database who keeps all those connections open. We can't tell from here. Solve the cause of "too many connections" or increase the limit and see if vpopmail still tries to create the database. Than you and us don't need to guess in the wild, but know for sure. -- Best regards Peter Palmreuther "See no evil...well maybe just a little...yeah!" - Joel
