Hi,

Wondering if anyone could give some indication as to where to look
for the cause of the following error messages. These error messages seem to
occur at about the time when users are having problems logging in.

Do you have any other error messages besides these? Like auth process
crashing? If it's not crashing, it means that Dovecot starts dropping
requests older than 3,5 minutes. So the initial password lookup
succeeds, but what happens afterwards doesn't. Does dovecot or dovecot- auth process use much CPU?
