Hello,
I have an unusual problem with the email service. All of a sudden the mail clients of all accounts would prompt users to enter their username/password and of course would keep prompting even if user puts correct credentials. Then shortly after, everything is back to normal without changing anything.
During this time, load of the server is good, memory usage is good, and the mail service would still be running.
Background Info
The Number of Authentication Daemons was 5, but I have increased it to 6 just now to see if this is going to solve the problem. Yet, what could the other reason for such a behavior?
Many thanks
