[Dovecot] unknown dovecot error. imap or logging rate?

[OpenMacNews]

hi,

i've dovecot cvs 10branch installed on OSX 10.4.7.

when i login from my MUA (in this example, Mulberry), functionally all looks OK.

BUT, i *do* see one error in the log output,

	dovecot: Aug 27 20:43:25 Error: IMAP(testuser at mydomain.com): Sending log 
messages too fast, throttling..

Is this an imap error? or is it 'just' the error of logging too fast?

if the latter, what to do about it? or, is the throttling normal behavior?


the complete context follows:
