What I can say on my behave is that (as the only user of PHP and Postgres on
the computer) when I login to IMP webmail, quite a lot of postmasters appear,
and don't dissapear after logging off.
but I have no problem. I can be all day with IMP fooling around and the
backend postmaster would stay around the 20 live conections.

Any comments?
