Yes, I do:

Nov 16 17:59:34 lvr13 pop3s[3196]: SSL_read() returned 0
Nov 16 17:59:38 lvr13 pop3s[3196]: SSL_read() returned 0
Nov 16 18:00:09 lvr13 pop3s[3215]: SSL_read() returned 0
Nov 16 18:00:26 lvr13 pop3s[3847]: SSL_read() returned 0
Nov 16 18:00:34 lvr13 pop3s[3215]: SSL_read() returned 0
Nov 16 18:00:34 lvr13 pop3s[3199]: SSL_read() returned 0
Nov 16 18:00:39 lvr13 pop3s[3199]: SSL_read() returned 0
Nov 16 18:00:43 lvr13 pop3s[3229]: SSL_read() returned 0

Not all of these processes are stuck, though. (Maybe none are). Should I be 
looking for something specific?
