I'm encountering lots of
Oct 31 11:14:25 postamt dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files
errors around midday ever since the latest upgrade to 1.0.7.
The errors appear in pairs like this one:
Oct 31 11:20:01 postamt dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files
Oct 31 11:20:01 postamt dovecot: imap-login: Internal login failure: user=<username>, method=PLAIN, rip=193.175.174.239, lip=141.42.4.250, TLS
What gives?
