[vchkpw] Problems with pop auth after upgrade to mysql auth

[Dave Goodrich]

Since we changed to use mysql auth I have been getting complaints from 
users having to enter their password more than once. This is not 
consistant, it doesn't happen every time. It seems most prevelent for 
users of Eudora or old Outlook Express. Outlook, Netscape Mail, and 
Thunderbird do not seem to be having a problem.

My MySQL db is on another server dedicated to serving MySQL connections 
to vpopmail and spamc. Plenty of resources, queries per second is only 
4.3, threads 11, I have a dual Sparc Enterprize 450 with 2gb of ram. 
100mb duplex ether between the mailservers and the db that is used for 
nothing but the mysql connection and NFS to the maildirs. I have my 
key_buffer=128M and my table_cache=128. Top says I am at a whopping load 
of .8.

I just finished upgrading to to 5.4.6 and the problem remains. I've 
googled and searched the maillist, anyone have a clue?
