Closer checking shows that it works with ext3 and reiserfs, but not with jfs. Either there's a bug in the filesystem, or dovecot does an invalid assumption... no idea of which.
The strange thing is that it works after reconnecting. I don't see what the difference is between reconnecting and reselecting mailbox. If it never worked it would be clear that the problem is with Dovecot. I think there has been problems with Reiser as well, so it's well possible that Dovecot assumes something wrong. I guess I should try creating reiser/jfs partitions myself and see how they work.
I converted the partitions to reiserfs, and just as on the test system, that solved the problem. When reconnecting (quitting the application and restarting it), it should connect to a new instance as opposed to keeping an open one... maybe some optimization is different when checking for additions as opposed to opening it for the first time?
