Hi

I have a similar problem, but with timsieved -- it seems that my problem
is caused by monit checking the port (in case of timsieved i do not
really care too much though and just restart it once per hour for good
measure).

Do you have anything that checks if your services are alive? If so:
is it just a "connection open" test or a "proper" imap test ?

I think that sometimes dbmail leaves sockets "open" when there is no
proper commands sent -- still got to debug that at some point though -
since I do not have the problem with imapd but monit has a proper imap
check (and no timsieved check )
