I had some major DDOS attacks on my server in December. Since then my webmail systems have been rather unstable. I have Anti-DDOS, and everything is patched, up to my knowledge.

SQUIRRELMAIL:
- Usually gives error, either on frontpage, or after loging in:
Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module: user (path: /tmp)

UEBIMAIL:
- Always reliable frontpage (login), but usually gives a timeout error when attempting to log in - "Unable to establish connection" (browser error, not server error). Either on listing page, or some other page.

When either of them work, loading is extremely slow.

This is not a problem on one or two accounts - and not a problem on a couple of domains. It affects all domains and all accounts equally, even brand new ones. The problem occours 75% of the time, and obviously renders webmail unusable.

This only affects webmail. All other sites on the system are running fine - Drupal, osCommerce, eGroupware - MySQL, DA, etc. Load average us usually between 0.2 and 0.7

If anyone has any tips/tricks/hints to assist with, I will appreciate any help!
