Hi
I allready have set 256 on max_user_instances , and in the log i keep seeing Mar 28 10:08:44 mail dovecot: imap(some.username): Warning: Inotify instance limit for user 98 (UID vmail) exceeded, disabling. Increase /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instances
All users use thunderbird 3.1.9 , and from time to time this show in log , with a random user.
What can i do to resolve this issue ?
