What about lock_method, and are indexes in NFS or local disk?

Does this happen often? I think there are some rarely occuring bugs in
Dovecot still related to this, but I haven't yet figured out how to
reproduce/fix them.

This can also happen if mbox has changed unexpectedly but also its
timestamp and file size hasn't changed from what Dovecot last had seen.
Pretty unlikely though..

Anyway, this problem isn't visible to users either. Dovecot just
re-syncs the whole mbox afterwards.
