No, we do not have maxchild set. Also, FYI, this is a very low volume 
server. We have maybe 10-15 users logged in at once, if that many. We are 
really just using Cyrus right now in a test mode to see how well everything 
works. Should we be using maxchild?

mars# cat cyrus.conf
# standard standalone server implementation

START {
   # do not delete these entries!
   mboxlist      cmd="ctl_mboxlist -r"
   deliver       cmd="ctl_deliver -r"

   # this is only necessary if using idled for IMAP IDLE
#  idled                cmd="idled"
}

# UNIX sockets start with a slash and are put into /var/imap/socket
SERVICES {
   # add or remove based on preferences
   imap          cmd="imapd" listen="imap" prefork=0
#  imaps                cmd="imapd -s" listen="imaps" prefork=0
   pop3          cmd="pop3d" listen="pop3" prefork=0
#  pop3s                cmd="pop3d -s" listen="pop3s" prefork=0
#  sieve                cmd="timsieved" listen="sieve" prefork=0

   # at least one LMTP is required for delivery
#  lmtp         cmd="lmtpd" listen="lmtp" prefork=0
   lmtpunix      cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=0
}

EVENTS {
   # this is required
   checkpoint    cmd="ctl_mboxlist -c" period=30

   # this is only necessary if using duplicate delivery suppression
   delprune      cmd="ctl_deliver -E 3" period=1440
}
