A little old.

After examining the truss output, it appears that the problem
is either with perl or Solaris.  For some reason, each time an
attachment file is created, an open is done on the directory,
and there is nothing in the MHonArc source that is doing the
directory open.  Since the open64() calls on the directory
are never closed, file descriptors are getting used up.

Therefore, it is either an issue with Perl's sysopen() or
some Solaris'ism.

Do you have the ability to try a later version of Perl or
a different OS?
