If an IMAP fetch is issued some "short" time after a message was delivered with dovecot deliver then dovecot reports wrong (zero) values for that new message. Afterward, it reports the information OK.
What OS/filesystem do you use? I don't see how this is possible. The mails are first written to tmp/ directory and then they're atomically rename()d to the new/ or cur/ directory.
I also tested this myself, rapidly sending the same FETCH command 1000 times/sec while delivering 40MB mails to the maildir. The size was always correct.
I'm using standard out of the box Redhat EL 4 with an ext3 filesystem. Since I can reproduce it easily on different RHEL4 machines, tell me what additional information you'd like.
Thanks again, Ron
