Ever since I have switched from db3_nosync to skiplist my lmtpd's have stopped hanging and the box appears to be performing better.
It has only been two weeks since I changed but I haven't had lmtpd hang yet and it used to hang on a daily basis.

Well, now I have Cyrus installed (yet not completely tested though)
The only 2 things left, which are bothering me now , 2 king of messages in syslog:
1:
"lmtpd[10260]: DBERROR db4: 9 lockers"
2:
"master: setrlimit: Unable to set file descriptors limit to
-1: Operation not permitted"
As I explored this list, the first is related to Berkeley DB (4.0.14) bug, since its counters got incremented ... I've read on sleepycat, that
it had been fixed in 4.1. , but this version of DB is not supported by
Cyrus..
The second seemes to be kernel , or cyrus-kernel problem ( or not? ), and
as I found in list I shouldn't pay much attention to it too..
But, may be there's something I can do to fix those bugs , to live with
clean logs...?
