I am currently testing several scenarios to help determine how to best implement dovecot for our environment. One scenario of particular interest is Maildir + NFS, load balanced between several servers running dovecot.
This won't work well with v1.0. If the same mailbox is accessed from multiple servers at the same time you'll get errors. See http://wiki.dovecot.org/NFS.
Note that just disabling attribute cache isn't enough. I didn't know this before, and that wiki page should be updated..
file maildir-uidlist.c: line 139 (maildir_uidlist_unlock): assertion failed: (uidlist->lock_count > 0)
Looks like a bug.
dovecot-1.0-1.2.rc15.el5
But there's a good chance this has already been fixed in newer versions. You can get prebuilt packages for RHEL5 from http://atrpms.net/dist/el5/dovecot/
