dovecot - Mar 2018 - dovecot connections to mysql

Hello,

I'm running a virtual mail hosting system with MySQL as a backend for
dovecot to do it's authentication against. I am getting intermediant
failures when users attempt mail-related tasks such as checking their
inbox or setting up an alias. The error is to many connections.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
Dave.

Increase number of allowed connections in your MySQL server, or use auth cache.
