The problem is that dovecot apparently drops the SQL part from time to time. Though this can be fixed by HUPing the dovecotdaemon I'd rather that I didn't have to.

Anything in Dovecot's logs about it? How many dovecot-auth processes are running when this happens? Dovecot uses "worker" dovecot-auth processes to execute MySQL queries, and by default they're limited to 30 (auth_worker_max_count). Maybe it has created 30 of them and they're all stuck at waiting for a reply from MySQL?
