Hello !
The problem with "Too many open files" has disappeared here when using the version dovecot.i386 1:1.0.9-0_65.fc7 on a system running Fedora 7. With the more recent version dovecot.i386 1:1.0.10-0_66.fc7, the problem occurs again as it did previously.
There's hardly any difference between 1.0.9 and 1.0.10, except if you're using LDAP passdb/userdb. Unless the RPM was packaged differently, I'd say it's just a chance that 1.0.9 happens to (appear to) work and 1.0.10 doesn't.
