Good to know. Everything here is going to /var/mail.log

And what does "not accepting connections" mean? Does the TCP
handshake finish? For example if you do:

telnet localhost 143

Does it

a) Hang after "Trying 127.0.0.1..." b) Hang after "Escape character is '^]'." c) Say connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused

Naturally, now that I'm trying to duplicate the issue, I can't get it
to act up. If I can get into a mode where it stops working again,
I'll try that and report back.

Thanks!
