Sorry I wasn't more clear. Definitely more than one. Overall, right now,
lsof|grep evolution|wc
7385
Some of the open files are what I expect:
evolution 30842 pasacki mem REG 8,2 14824 1368843
/usr/lib/bonob
o/monikers/libmoniker_std_2.so
and there's plenty (1531) of those.
There are also lots (122) of open files that are:
evolution 30842 pasacki 16r FIFO 0,5 15219446 pipe
evolution 30842 pasacki 17w FIFO 0,5 15219446 pipe
evolution 30842 pasacki 18r FIFO 0,5 15219447 pipe
.
.
.
But most strange are *man*y (5600) of these:
evolution 30842 pasacki 35u sock 0,0 17110030 can't
identify
protocol
and, lastly, about 179 of the mbox.ibex.index.data files open on my
nfsserver.
At one point I heard folklore that Solaris NFS servers and Linux NFS
clients [Solaris 8; Linux = RH7.3] do not always reliably interact.
Might that have something to do with the problem?
I have no idea as I have heard no such rumour nor have I any idea was to
what that could be in reference to.
I was afraid that evolution might be locking and unlocking files for
mail that were not getting closed properly due to some hanging NFS
connection. I'm speculating about subjects which I don't know, so I'm
probably way off base here.

I've noticed Evo 1.4.4 dying after, oh, about a week or so because of
"too many open files".
An "lsof | grep evolution | wc" gives me 6748 lines.
Lots of entries say "can't identify protocol".
Is this:
an evo problem,
me with too many folders, or
a system limitation that I should fix (ulimit -n)?
On an unrelated matter, I'd like to get emacs style keybindings that I
enjoyed under Evo 1.2 and can't find in 1.4.
