Hi,

 

I'm running Wordpress, and I see more the followed error:

This would definitely be the cause of your 500 errors. The email stuff is taking up all your processes.

 

I checked your website, 500 error, I killed all those imap processes and then it loads perfectly.

 

Less than five minutes later I check again and already 5 imap processes have been recreated. Maybe you should tell all of your email clients to settle down a bit?

Thank you for the answer, but I have just 2 clients, one on iPhone (stock client) this check e-mails every 15 Minutes and one is on my MacBook (Apple Mail) this check the e-mails every 5 Minutes. What can I tweak?

Maybe you could access your email via webmail or something. Another solution would be to use Google Apps for your webmail.

Can I buy more slots for processes?

Probably not. If you rely on email so heavily, why not forward all your messages to Gmail and check Gmail instead?
