[qmailtoaster] Dovecot Maximum number of connections from user+IP exceeded

[Jeff Koch]

Hi:
Our users are complaining about this error message:

Maximum number of connections from user+IP exceeded 
(mail_max_userip_connections=10)

We have adjusted the configuration entries at 
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/20-imap.conf and 20-pop3.conf to:

mail_max_userip_connections = 30
mail_max_userip_connections = 30

and restarted qmail and dovecot and yet the users are still getting this 
message saying they have exceeded the limit of 10.

How can I fix this?

Jeff
