When restarting Dovecot 2.2.10 (via atrpms) on RHEL 6, I get the error:
Warning: fd limit (ulimit -n) is lower than required under max. load (1024 <
4096), because of default_client_limit
# doveconf default_internal_user
default_internal_user = dovecot
Should dovecot print this warning based on $default_internal_user, or
based on root?
As root:
# ulimit -n
1024
As user dovecot:
$ ulimit -n
49152
$ whoami
dovecot
# grep dovecot /etc/security/limits.conf
dovecot hard locks 49152
dovecot hard nofile 49152
dovecot hard maxlogins 8192
dovecot soft locks 49152

You need to specify the desired ulimit in /etc/sysconfig/dovecot
