Okay. Just to be sure, do you file or inet sockets to serve these
IMAP[S] and POP[S] services?

There are some lines in the trace files that got my attention e.g.:

Does these belong to auth, login or imap/pop process?
-
L76: connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/var/run/.nscd_socket"}, 110)
= -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

L232: connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/var/run/.nscd_socket"}, 110)
= -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

L380: connect(5, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/var/run/.nscd_socket"}, 110)
= -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

Is this a DNS query or what
-
L346: connect(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(53),
sin_addr=inet_addr("138.231.136.6")}, 28) = 0

IMAP seems to be up and running:
-
L530: bind(6, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(143),
sin_addr=inet_addr("0.0.0.0")}, 16) = 0
L532: listen(6, 8) = 0

IMAPS also:
-
L540: bind(7, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(993),
sin_addr=inet_addr("0.0.0.0")}, 16) = 0
L542: listen(7, 8) = 0

POP also:
-
L550: bind(8, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(110),
sin_addr=inet_addr("0.0.0.0")}, 16) = 0
L552: listen(8, 8) = 0

POPS also:
-
L560: bind(9, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(995),
sin_addr=inet_addr("0.0.0.0")}, 16) = 0
L562: listen(9, 8) = 0

Yep, very surprising.

Thanks, Tero
