[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.2.8 problem on AIX
Running revision 9492:3efdbaab2960(Mon Nov 23) on AIX 5.3. I run dovecot out of inetd. Every once in a while I get the following error:
Dovecot is already running with PID 2592842 (read from /usr/ladmin/dovecot-1.2.8/var/run/dovecot/master.pid) when I try to connect to the imap port.

Back when (5-6 ? years ago) I first put DC on our AIX mail server, I thought to put it in the inted.conf file, as was the old UWIMAP invocation. But a) I had problems with that and b) people here informed me that it was much more efficient just to directly invoke it, so I put it in the /etc/rc.local file and it has <knock on wood> never failed to start and run cleanly. So....this is an easy one with an easy answer. :)

Is there a reason why you're running it from inetd? I wasn't really planning on preserving inetd support in v2.0. Way too much trouble. (Did I already ask you this?)
