Hi Stefan, > I hope that's enough to run it under dovecot class. How do I find out?
First, check if all is well: sudo su -c dovecot root -c 'ulimit -a' You might want to start dovecot like this: su -c dovecot root -c '/usr/local/bin/dovecot' (or whatever the path to the dovecot binary is) Remember, I don't run dovecot. This info comes from my MySQL install. Check http://www.openbsdsupport.org/. > $sysctl kern.maxfiles > kern.maxfiles=1772 > > It's less than my setting in login.conf, but this should be enough > anyway. kern.maxfiles is system wide and independent of any login class. dovecot might hit this limit. I'd try with 17720 first. HTH... Nico
