[Evolution] too many open files with IMAP

[Phil Groschwitz <ssc1478 aim com>]

I have been using 2.8.0 with IMAP on Mandriva 2007 for about 6 months.
Two days ago, it started giving a problem after using evo for about
10-15 minutes.  The messages would not show and sometimes I would get a
"too many open files" message where the e-mail should be.

By disabling my IMAP account, the problem went away.

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks,
Phil
