As told in other messages, the way of playing is different.
Each vpopmail/qmail program usually executes brieftly and opens and closes MySQL, so there are no abnormal exits.
When courier plays (both imap and pop), it asks auth data to courier's auth daemon.
When this daemon is started, it opens MySQL and never closes it, as it supposes to reuse continuosly the same opened connection.
But if none is going to use the connection for eigth hours, MySQL itself closes the connection.
This will be opened again automatically by vpopmail library in courier's daemon, but you see an error in MySQL stats.
Hope I've been clear. Tonino At 12.54 05/10/2007, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
