Hi!

Suddenly since this afternoon the following happens:

Sep 14 18:16:55 UnseenUniversity pop3-login: Login: gunter [127.0.0.1]
Sep 14 18:16:55 UnseenUniversity pop3(gunter): Corrupted index data file /
home/gunter/Mail/.imap/INBOX/.imap.index.data: Field 1 size points outside 
file (205408 / 205376) for record 4662
Sep 14 18:16:55 UnseenUniversity pop3(gunter): Corrupted index data file /
home/gunter/Mail/.imap/INBOX/.imap.index.data: Missing location field for 
record 4662
Sep 14 18:16:55 UnseenUniversity dovecot: child 9436 (pop3) killed with signal 
11

I thought dovecot would delete damaged index files but I get this always when 
checking mail for the first time, cheking mail for the second time tells me:

Sep 14 18:18:43 UnseenUniversity pop3-login: Login: gunter [127.0.0.1]
Sep 14 18:18:43 UnseenUniversity pop3(gunter): Corrupted binary tree file /
home/gunter/Mail/.imap/INBOX/.imap.index.tree: Invalid used_file_size in 
header (0)

but actually fetches the mail after that.
So what can/should I do? Simply delete the offending index file?

The dovecot version I'm using here is Debian's
ii  dovecot-pop3d  0.99.10-7      A secure POP3 server that supports mbox and
and only it's pop3 part.

Greetings,

  Gunter
