Courier-Imap fails after 10mins

[jongers]

Can confirm that this solves the problem.

sudo apt-get install fam
sudo apt-get install courier-imap courier-imap-ssl

(second command might not be necessary if courier-imap isn't uninstalled by the first command.)

Thanks for posting your fix, I will give it a go, I already had the courier services installed but not fam,

Ill post the results.

Great,
Looks like it's worked a charm, Thanks for the Heads up. I was on my way to a complicated rebuild. However I probably would have come across the same issues.

FAM is something I have never knowingly used,

From the http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/fam

FAM monitors files and directories, notifying interested applications of changes. This package provides a server that can monitor a given list of files and notify applications through a socket. If the kernel supports dnotify (kernels >= 2.4.x) FAM is notified directly by the kernel. Otherwise it has to poll the files' status. FAM can also provide an RPC service for monitoring remote files (such as on a mounted NFS filesystem).

Thanks
Again
