[Dovecot] Corrupted index file

Hi,

I've been wondering for a while if reiserfs is dovecot+maildir safe or
not. I get this too often (and my imap session gets disconnected):

Jun  9 08:42:32 sun imap(nk): Corrupted index file
/home/nk/Maildir/.INBOX/.imap
.index: UIDVALIDITY changed in uidlist

This happens always when a new mail arrives in maildir.

It's a Fedora Core 2 box running dovecot-0.99.10.4-4 (redhat) package.

Could the reason for these corruptions be something else than reiserfs?
I know there has been some problems with Fedora+dovecot but I haven't
seen this one reported here.

TIA,
