Hello List. I'm having a problem in a fresh install of qmail-toaster
over Centos 5.4
I'm using qmail-toaster on a VPS (Virtual Private Server). The server
function as a mail server for 2 mail accounts with normal traffic,
using imap.
The VPS limit the number of open files to 6000. Without qmail-toaster
running, the server has 1000-1500 files open, and when I start
qmail-toaster it jumps to 6000 reaching the max limit and generating
errors. Is it a normal behaviour? Is there a way to control the opened
files?
Thanks,
Natalio.

On a few QMTs I just checked, lsof shows 3700-5200. Pretty much stock, except for dovecot instead of courier.

You might need to disable services you don't need (pop3, pop3ssl, and associated logs), and throttle others back a bit (concurrencyincoming).

lsof will show which services are using each open file. QMT does need a lot of open files, but my numbers indicate that you should be able to make it work for just 2 accounts with no problem.
