Hello Luca!
We had similar problems with OTRS 2.3.4 some time ago. Only help was to open the mailbox from a mail program (thunderbird, outlook …) and remove the specific mail (should be the third oldest from your given run). If you have to have that one in the ticket system, you might be able to edit the source of the mail and add it manually (with the tool PostMaster.pl, see http://doc.otrs.org/3.0/en/html/email-receiving.html).
You should open a bug report (or add to a maybe existing one) on bugs.otrs.org also!
Btw. what seems strange for me is that the POP3 process stopped for account2 after 20 mails and did not continue for the 4 residual mails without an error message.

Betreff: [otrs] serious problem regarind email fetching.. not just Can't create PID file
Wichtigkeit: Hoch
Hi,
in reference as my previous emails, due i haven’t find a logical reason why the process do not finish to get emails, I tried to run it manually foring it to start even is a process is already running…
the problem is the process is not running for real, this is the output of the manual run and I guess there is a problem/BUG on otrs:
[otrs@otrs ~]$ ./bin/otrs.PostMasterMailbox.pl -f 1
NOTICE: PostMasterMailbox.pl is already running but is starting again!

[otrs@otrs ~]$
Looking at the output its evident that the perl script ot fetch the emails stop because of a problem in converting the email address or some character… do not delete the process_id from the table… and do not download any email.
This is a serious problem for us…
Any idea ????
