the other day i moved all mail functions to a different machine. i copied over my existing maildir's and installed dovecot-stable-20050405.
What version did you have on the old machine? Did you copy the index files as well?
I had been running dovecot-stable-20050405 successfully before I moved everything, however prior to this week I had been running 0.99.14. I copied the entire Maildir to the new machine so the indexes should have been there as well
once i had everything moved and dovecot running i checked my mail via imap. all the messages appeared however when i try to read a message the message body doesn't match the header info that's showed in the message list.
is this an index problem? or did i corrupt my maildir when i moved it over to another host?
Probably an index problem. I'd try deleting them. Did you see any errors in the Dovecot logs? I deleted *index* in my Maildir and when I checked imap the indexes were rebuilt but the problem is still there
