Package: offlineimap Version: 5.99.1 Severity: important
Hi John, today offlineimap stopped working on my rather large IMAP account, crashing with the following backtrace: Thread 'Copy message 1138 from hypernews/hn-atlas-releaseKitProblem' terminated with exception: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/offlineimap/threadutil.py", line 153, in run File "threading.py", line 422, in run File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/offlineimap/folder/Base.py", line 282, in copymessageto File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/offlineimap/folder/Maildir.py", line 169, in savemessage IOError: [Errno 24] Too many open files: '/home/jschumac/OfflineIMAP/hypernews.hn-atlas-releaseKitProblem/tmp/1185443341_6.13927.silab31' I am not sure if this is related to a recent upgrade, I use offlineimap only occasionally. All in all I have some 10-20k emails in about 100 folders. Rerunning offlineimap does not help, it crashes at the exact same email. Severity important is correct, I hope, since it stopped working here completely but might work for others with less volume. Thanks for packaging offlineimap!
