Not really. It seems like something closes wrong file descriptors. How often do you get them? How soon after the client logged in does that error happen (immediately/in a few seconds/later)? You could try if not using dnotify helps, but I'm not so sure about that. In any case post your dovecot -n output? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
