[Mailman-Users] 'Too many open files' in run_queue

[Dave Cinege]

OK I'm further investigating my run_queue problems. The reason
it woudl just hang is there was a stale lock file.

If I clear the lock file I get:

Logging error: <StampedLogger to '/var/lib/mailman/logs/smtp-failures'>
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Logging/Logger.py", line 55, in __get_f
IOError: (24, 'Too many open files')
Original log message:

  File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/OutgoingQueue.py", line 120, in processQueue

OK what's up?
