How many dovecot-auth processes were there running? Unless there were 1024 dovecot-auth processes, it sounds more like a file descriptor leak and adding more fds will only delay the error.
According to the result of a command "ps aux", only one dovecot-auth process running on the system. .. Did you mean that this phenomenon could be a bug?
Yes. There should be no reason for dovecot-auth to have 1024 fds open.
In case it is impossible to update the dovecot package, adding a line in /etc/init.d/dovecot that I wrote in my first email is the only workaround to avoid the errors?
My guess it that it takes 4 times as long for the error to show up, but it doesn't prevent it.
