Which version of spamdyke?
Do you have any defunct spamdyke processes? There was a problem with
spamdyke leaving defunct processes from TLS sessions, which has been
fixed in the latest version (4.1.0).
spamdyke doesn't have any files open when there are no smtp sessions
active. I'm seeing 24 files for spamdyke per session.
HTH.

It seems that the major open-files consumer is spamdyke. I have
disabled pop3, pop3-ssl and imap, but there is no noticeable change.
I'll test disabling spamdyke and see the result.

Hello List. I'm having a problem in a fresh install of qmail-toaster
over Centos 5.4
I'm using qmail-toaster on a VPS (Virtual Private Server). The server
function as a mail server for 2 mail accounts with normal traffic,
using imap.
The VPS limit the number of open files to 6000. Without qmail-toaster
running, the server has 1000-1500 files open, and when I start
qmail-toaster it jumps to 6000 reaching the max limit and generating
errors. Is it a normal behaviour? Is there a way to control the opened
files?
Thanks,
Natalio.

On a few QMTs I just checked, lsof shows 3700-5200. Pretty much stock,
except for dovecot instead of courier.
You might need to disable services you don't need (pop3, pop3ssl, and
associated logs), and throttle others back a bit (concurrencyincoming).
lsof will show which services are using each open file. QMT does need a lot
of open files, but my numbers indicate that you should be able to make it
work for just 2 accounts with no problem.
