I have a 5.2.1-p5 system that shows the same symptons. It is lightly loaded and the above mentioned symptons start appearing after 1-3 days of uptime. A restart of BIND does not change anything, but af reboot of the system gives me another few days of correct operation. I hope the above can give someone more hints to what might be going on. I also hope to get some pointers to resource counters i can check to try an identify if something is leaking. The mail system is standard qmail, qmail-scanner with clamav and spamassassin and vpopmail - all from ports. Thanks for any hints or information in advance, Dennis Kristensen
