[lug] bind: address already in use.

I'm setting up an imap server and haven't done so in over a year. I keep
getting:

inetd[pid] imap/tcp: bind: address already in use

Normally the address already in use errors are because there's already a
process running, atleast with some other apps I use. Is this telling me
it's trying to start another bind process? Why would IMAP need do that?
It's happening every ten minutes.

Anyone know where I can look to figure this one out?

Thanks,

John
