hello ken,

the reason i upgraded to 3.2.3 was that dbmail imap in version 3.1.17 
kept crashing from time to time without any further info in the error logs.
which was actually not so funny as customers couldn't then login via IMAP

as a workaround i wrote a tiny shell script checking if dbmail-imapd is 
running and if not then start a process
since upgrading to 3.2.3 no crash has been reported so far ... keeping 
fingers crossed ;)

greetings
becki
