Hi Aki,

We just installed 2.3.19, and are seeing a couple of users throwing the "INBOX/dovecot.index reset, view is now inconsistent" and their replicator status erroring out. Tried force-resync on the full mailbox, but to no avail just yet.  Not sure if this bug was supposedly fixed in 2.3.19?

Thanks,

Cassidy

2.3.19 is round the corner, so not long. I cannot yet promise an exact date but hopefully within week or two.
