[Dovecot] Dovecot too many open files???

[Tim Tyler]

Dovecot users,
   I guess I should complain to Redhat.  Their latest rhl release of 
Dovecot is 1.0.rc15 on redhat 5.   Its even older if you are running 
on redhat 4 which ironically is much more stable.  I even tried to 
run dovecot directly to ldap using userdb ldap, but that would fail 
after a few minutes.  We are now downloading and installing 
1.010.  So far it appears to be stable, but we shall see over the 
rest of the afternoon.  Too early to judge.  I hate having to run 
source code installs, but it may be the only way in this case.  I 
guess I would expect better from a commercial linux company in the 
stability of what they release.
