The 'doveconf -n' output is attached. I have not set any "process_limit" values, and I don't think I'm getting anywhere close to the 1024 default, so I'm pretty confused as to what might be wrong.
Any suggestions on what to do next are appreciated.
What makes you think 1024 is the default? We had to increase it. It shows up in doveconf -n output, so I don't think that's the default.
# doveconf -n | grep limit default_process_limit = 1024
What makes me think 1024 is the default? The documentation: --> http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Services?highlight=%28process_limit%29#imap.2C_pop3...
But, Michael's right, documentation can be wrong. So, I dumped the entire configuration. Here are the values found on the running system. Both imap and pop3 services have "process_limit = 1024".
