Hi, i ran into an issue today were postfix didnt have enough processes to handle incoming smtp connections. This for whatever reason was causing pop/imap (dovecot) to take a long time to respond on the appropriate port.
after looking at server and finding nothing wrong i stopped postfix which got rid of the delay on port 110/143. I then turned on postfix and saw the delay for port 25/110/143.
What i then did was adjust default_process_limit in postfix which took care of the problem.
question is why would not enough processes in postfix slow other services down, dovecot 110/143?
