Hello,
We have a production mail server running dovecot 0.99 (dovecot-0.99.14-1.rf). We are getting several errors corrected in dovecot 1.x versions:
corrupted inboxes (garbage at beggining of mbox files),
corrupted index files (Error: Corrupted file index /home/jsmith/.imap/Drafts/.imap.index: Sequence 6 not found from binary tree (6 msgs says header)),
others (Error: fcntl() failed with mbox file /var/mail/jsmith: Resource deadlock avoided), etc.
I'm planning to upgrade using the instructions found at dovecot's wiki.
