From the logs :

tail -100 /var/log/dovecot/dovecot | more :

......... Jul 06 13:51:20 dovecot: Warning: All login processes are in use. You may need to increase login_max_processes_count Jul 18 15:20:32 dovecot: Warning: All login processes are in use. You may need to increase login_max_processes_count Jul 19 09:16:40 dovecot: Warning: Killed with signal 15 (by pid=3062 uid=0 code=kill) .........

Should I just go ahead and increase login_max_processes_count ? Is it that simple ?

Just asking for your feedback and experience chaps.

Thank you in advance,
