[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.2rc4 - launchd keeps trying to restart it, after Dovecot exits with exit code: 89
I know I should update to the release version (will do on Monday), but
I keep getting this in my logs (ie All Messages shown):
4/07/09 11:50:18 PM Dovecot[742] Fatal: Dovecot is already running

Anywhere in particular that I should look for hints as to what is
causing Dovecot to exit?
System is a Mac Mini Core 2 Duo running 10.5.7 (Leopard).
Thanks,
James.
