hello all

frequently (about 2 times a month) the file limits are being exceeded by
qmail haveing to many files open.  The box only has qmail/vpopmail and
pop3 running on it.

I have traced the 'failure' to 2 messages with 1053 reciepients listed.

Evidently there is no way I can find to increase the 1024 open file limit
on my 2.2.12 Red Hat box.

How do you control the incoming mail as to not force the system to error
out because of not open file resources?

Why dose qmail itself keep accepting SMTP connections (and having to
open a file to dump the mail to) when it must be getting an error about no
more open handles available???

Is anyone else runnng into this?
