Topic: imap connections fail until postfix is restarted

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version: mail_version = 0.8.6
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: CentOS 6.5
- Related log if you're reporting an issue: Unsure of which log to give
====

My mail server is at times refusing imap connections and I am unable to send mail. This is occurring every so often. Once it occurred in as little as 5 minutes. All I'm doing right now is restarting postfix to get it to send mail again. There is nothing obvious in any log that I have checked (maillog, messages, dovecot, mailq) that would be the cause of this issue. I'm not sure which one would be useful so if I should include some more just ask.

Does anyone know what might be causing this or at the very least what I should be checking?

Any guidance at all would be greatly appreciated.

Edit:

I've attached the following except from the log just in case it will be of any help. This is the output of the following command.

egrep '(Error|fatal|panic):' /var/log/maillog | grep -v Login | grep 'Aug  7'

What do you mean "refusing imap connection" and "unable to send mail"? Any error log in your mail client application (Outlook, Thunderbird, etc)?
