Hi Adadm, 

I don't use OpenBSD but ssoon use Mimedefang on FreeBSD 4.6
(and so will maybe encounter such problem).
I did some search and found some information that may be useful :

Taken from 
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=setrlimit&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=OpenBSD+Current&arch=i386&format=html


[EPERM]       The limit specified to setrlimit() would have raised
the maximum limit value, and the caller is not the superuser

Only the superuser may raise the maximum limits.  Other users may only
alter rlim_cur within the range from 0 to rlim_max or (irreversibly)
low-er rlim_max.

Hope it can help a bit, ....
