Joseph,
Is you Virtual POP3 Daemon controlled by Inetd? If this that is your
problem. To protect from service attacks, it a service under the control of
Inetd receives more than 40 requests per minute, it will stop receiving
requests for that service.
I suggest making the following change to your inetd.conf file;
vpop3 stream tcp nowait.100 root /usr/sbin/vpop......
Just change the nowait.??? to the number of connections you feel you need.
The default is the same as saying nowait.40.
Also;
man inetd.conf
man inetd

Subject: Virtual POP3 problem
We are running Virtual Pop3 server on Redhat 6.0. The POP stops running once
in a while. We checked the log file "/var/log/messages", it looks like if
the new connection is over 37 in the past one minute, it kills the service,
after several minutes it comes back. Is there any way we can adjust the
number the pop can handle per minute? and how?
thanks
Joseph
