Just went through this again today.  Has anyone found a solution?

------------------------------------------------------


After several days of operation, POP connections fail to my server. The 
log message is

Mar 27 15:51:46 ciscy dovecot: Login process died too early - shutting 
down

Linux ciscy.sterndata.com 2.4.22-1.2174.nptl #1 Wed Feb 18 16:38:32 EST

]# /usr/sbin/dovecot --version
0.99.10

# /etc/init.d/dovecot status
dovecot (pid 6900) is running...

Killing the dovecot process, deleting /var/lock/subys/dovecot, and 
restarting the process gets POP3 and IMAP working again.

Suggestions?
