Sorry to say: this is a 'me too' posting ! (I posted before in April,
but nothing realy helpful showed up) 
my setup is:

Xmail 1.20 (was 1.18 in April, update didn't solve)
Slackware Linux 8.0.0
gcc 2.95.3
Linux 2.4.9
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1

no filters at SMTP level, and RSS of XMail processec after 35 days of
uptime is 9184 (!)

Connections just end during SMTP DATA transmission. So if there are
attachments involved, it is more likely for the session to fail. The
clients report some TCP/IP problem which neither helps users, nor me ;-)

For us, too, the 'solution' is to wait a bit and try again. But the
problem doesn't seem to be related to system load, network load or
anything else to be monitored by top, sar, netstat :-P

Both local and remote connections seem to be affected, since a lot of
mail comes in via our backup MX which is run by our ISP.

I am glad (ironically) there is somebody else with this problem, I
started to think I'm nuts ...
