While I don't think that it's directly relevant to the problem that you are having here, I have seen this before with Linux servers. If you restart syslog on a Redhat Linux box existing processes which have already opened syslog break down. Messages which would have gone to the syslog go to stderr (if I remember correctly), which happens to be the socket attached to IMAP client. Much hilarity ensues. -- David Carter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] University Computing Service, Phone: (01223) 334502 New Museums Site, Pembroke Street, Fax: (01223) 334679 Cambridge UK.
