Hello all,

Since my migration to SUSE SLES 10, I have a new error message :

dovecot1 dovecot: IMAP(damien.chambe@egs-gestion.fr): inotify_init() failed: Too many open files

It seems to occurs when thunderbird is idle, or when I click on sub folders I have a ulimit for open files a bit low, 1024

I have changed to 4096, but same error message.

It has no visible consequences. I am on dovecot 1.0.1 I don't think it is related to dovecot config, any idea ?

ulimit -a core file size (blocks, -c) 0 data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited file size (blocks, -f) unlimited pending signals (-i) 24573 max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 32 max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited open files (-n) 4096 pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8 POSIX message queues (bytes, -q) 819200 stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192 cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited max user processes (-u) 24573 virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited file locks (-x) unlimited
