Hi John
I changed this, upgraded to Cyrus 2.0.12, made some testing - and it seems to
work now.
I`m using:
lmtp cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=0
instead of:
lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=0
I can reproduce the error with the old setting, when the system is under heavy
load.
Thank you for your hint!
!Mike
