It does kill everything. I don't know if there's anything that Dovecot
can do about the "Address already in use" problem. It seems that the
OS is keeping the listener alive for some reason longer than the
processes exist. I've had the exact same problem with some simple test
programs and haven't figured out how to avoid it (even cleanly closing
all the connections didn't help. although I just thought that perhaps
using shutdown() might have, guess I'll have to try the next time).
Maybe google would find something about this problem, I haven't looked.
