Well, this means that the file was lost, but then Dovecot saw it again later.
No problem, then? :))
These look almost like there's a problem with locking the indexes properly..
Hm, can i help you in any way to resolve this issue?
Since the path contains /export, does it mean they're also exported to NFS?
No. It's mounted there just becouse of tradition ;)
I haven't seen any of these problems reported for a while, so I'd guess this has to be somehow specific to your system. One problem with Dovecot LDA is that it reads the configuration file by itself, so it might be possible that it reads for example the locking settings wrong.
Hm... i've got dovecot 1.0-beta3 and dovecot-deliver from cvs (~ 2 weeks ago)
Could you try running http://dovecot.org/tools/imaptest.c with some test account and see if it can make your Dovecot break? And if not, try sending mails to the test account with Dovecot LDA while running the imaptest?
