I do it regularly -- mailserver@nic.funet.fi is one example.
Is the complaint: "cannot open fd %d for w." ?
(Found in scheduler/transport.c, and is only existence of
"open fd" anywhere in the transport-side programs.)
If so, that means you have too many file-descriptors open
in the system. Possibly it indicates leakage of FILE*
objects in the system, possibly something inherent to your
system's STDIO library. What the value listed in that
report is ?
