I read the threads from youngest to oldest, so I haven't seen the
original thread - yet. My MUA says I have 236 as-yet unread postings on
this list :(

I don't know what OL version, MTA nor maildrop version you use. The
symptoms you describe, I had with earliest OL 2.1 versions and early
Exim 4.x.

I have no problems with extremely highly loaded OL 2.2.15, SASL
LDAP-based Postfix 2.1.4 and maildrop 1.6.3a systems, all running on
differently configured, different classes of IBM hardware/RedHat RHAS3.
I, too, have the LDAP DB running on the same MTA/maildrop servers (and
LDAP-based Courier IMAP), though the LDAP DB itself is replicated
(slurpd), so that other systems on the networks query their local
replica.

It'll be interesting to see your original posting ;)
