It could be that if you are using BerkeleyDB for deliver.db then the 
system is running out of locks or resources. This could cause lmtpd 
processes to end up waiting for these resources and it would mean that 
none of the lmtpd processes are listening for the new connections.

Check the logs for errors, and also you might want to limit the number of 
lmtpd processes.
