Hi,
I have a dovecot installation with a strange problem: all the mails stays
in storage after deleted from users mailbox. If user logon after the mails
are deleted, they don't receive them any more, but the m.## files aren’t
deleted. This happens with pop3 (default for this installation) and/or imap.
The dovecot is installed along postfix with mysql and multi-domains support
Here's the dovecot conf

What is "gid=-1" at the end of the log?
Can anyone help?
