That is not an error, but it usually happens because of an error.
Doesn't it say anything else? It basically means that dovecot.index file
was recreated for some reason (it was corrupted or deleted).

One day I'll get rid of that error message unless the change really was
unexpected..

Deleting the files shouldn't make any difference, because that message
just said they were recreated. Or does it keep breaking unless they are
deleted?
