Is it possible that this email was downloaded using Dovecot 0.99 and
Thunderbird's cache was already broken for it? You could tell him to
delete TB's cache and see if it still happens.

Another thing that comes to my mind is that how do you deliver mails to
maildirs? If the filenames aren't truly unique something like this could
happen. Although Dovecot detects that as long as you haven't disabled
its index files.

Anything in logs?
