Hi,

That's your culprit. You had bounces turned on, but were not running outgoing.pl regularly to deliver the bounces. They piled up over time, and you are probably on a ext2/3 filesystem. It slows down dramatically after you start hitting 20-30k files, so the time it took to write out a bounce reply, was longer then your pop server was willing to wait, so it cut the connection.

Solution: make sure outgoing.pl is running in cron. Set it to run ever 10 or 15 minutes (the frequency determines how fast a bounce/forward or autoreply will come back to a user).

Cheers,

Alex
