Tell me for what is respawnlo good, please ? Because it seems it occures every hour. And this is that thing which stops message delivery!!!

I doubt it. Respawnlo is the minimum automatic restart interval. Periodically, Courier restart itself. This is one of the factor in choosing when to go through a restart cycle.

I've created file respawnlo with one line: 12h it should handle it.

But:

Problem is we are using 64kb/s wireless connection and this file size is around 10MB and I think that delivery can take longer than one hour !

Ah -- see, that's the problem. If your bandwidth is 64K, you really have no business receiving multimegabyte files. submit allows for a maximum of 20 minutes to receive an E-mail message. You are seeing the zombie process because the 20 minute suicide watchdog timer goes off. I can see how this might result in some files not being cleaned up -- I'll make sure that it gets fixed.

Can I change watchdog timer or I have to only set sizelimit to let's say 5MB?

But your real problem is that you simply do not have sufficient resources to handle multimegabyte e-mail messages, with your bandwidth.

I doesn't matter about bandwidth because of it can be delivered durring night or it can take more time.

Thanks.
