I have a sendmail/dovecot imap/pop3 system that has been running with the following mail_location:
mail_location = mbox:/var/empty:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/indexes/%u
In order to reduce errors and simplify operation I removed imap and am now only responding to pop3. I'd like to also simplify the mail_location to get rid of index errors since I don't need indexes:
mail_location = mbox:/var/spool/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%n
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation#Index_files see :INDEX=MEMORY.

UIDVALIDITY is kept in index files by default, because you've the changed index files, the UIDVALIDITY changed.

That's a bug.

What do I need to do to transition to the new mail_location without the errors?
Thanks in advance.
