[Dovecot] Stupid question: Need to increase some connection limits
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 When I switch from one network to another, I sometimes get dovecot rejecting my connections. The error I get in the log is similar to: Sep 22 15:23:22 hostname dovecot: imap-login: Maximum number of connections from user+IP exceeded: user=<user>, method=METHOD, rip=1.2.3.4, lip=5.6.7.8 So the question is what parameter increases that? My five minutes of looking has failed me.

Future versions will also mention that setting in the log message. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Apparently Analagous Threads
- Dovecot statistics -- I hope this is a stupid question
- High network latency on first packet
- Shorewall + IPSec: help debugging why gw1<->gw2 SA works, but loc<->gw2 traffic doesn't trigger SA
- Dovecot 2 fails after correct login
- using puppet to configure local settings
