[Dovecot] Corrupted index file

[Edgardo Pezoa]

Frank:

Please, see my previous message at 
http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2005-February/006186.html.

We have almost same problem: both using Postfix, Dovecot and Procmail in 
different OS and with different MUA. For me, the key is Dovecot+Procmail.

My temporal solution is to send myself an e-mail and try to get e-mails 
again (some times do it twice). All pending e-mails arrives after that.

The question is: someone have a real fix?

Best regards,
Edgardo
