Hi,

We see this problem occasionally on our 2.0.16 servers:

Jan 28 22:42:58 mailhub.acsu.buffalo.edu master[3279]: [ID 970914 local6.error] 
process 294 exited, signaled to death by 11
Jan 28 22:43:01 mailhub.acsu.buffalo.edu quota[11111]: [ID 866726 local6.error] 
DBERROR db3: 2 lockers
Jan 28 22:43:18 mailhub.acsu.buffalo.edu imapd[11746]: [ID 866726 local6.error] 
DBERROR db3: 3 lockers

The number of lockers steadily increases until imap connections hang
and lmtpd stops delivering mail.

We've dealt with the problem by killing and restarting master. This
usually is sufficient but at times we're left with an imapd that won't
die and we have to reboot.

We're running Solaris 2.8 and had the same problem under 2.6.

We are using db3, and don't want to go to flat files for performance reasons.

We've seen several other reports of 'signalled to death by 11' and
hanging imapds. We're wondering if a bug has been opened or if any
progress has been made determining the cause and fix for this issue.

Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks very much,
