Re: [Dovecot] too many open files and v1.2

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. Thanks a lot ! Claude
