i am not using mbox , didnt analyse your conf very deeply but my bet is ,your namespace and/or directory layout setup is the problem

perhaps reread

Requires Dovecot v2.1+ to work properly. The CLucene version must be v2.3 (not v0.9). Dovecot builds only a single Lucene index for all mailboxes. The Lucene indexes are stored in lucene-indexes/ directory under the mail root index directory (e.g. ~/Maildir/lucene-indexes/).

so perhaps you need configure index directory seperate/extra setting etc

you shouldnt see it, guess you configured something wrong like

i.e

maildir_stat_dirs=no (default): Assume that all the files beginning with
a dot in the maildir are maildirs. You shouldn't have any non-directory
files beginning with a dot in the maildirs, but if you do you may need
to set this to "yes", in which case Dovecot needs to stat() each
directory entry, which degrades the performance. Some filesystems
provide the directory/non-directory status for free without having to
stat(). In those filesystems this setting is ignored.

etc

post your full dove conf to give chance for analysis

This is the same question I asked the list last week. There is no configuration directive listed on either of the two wiki pages you linked to above. My system is using Maildir with LAYOUT=fs, and my clients see the lucene-indexes folder as well, although it is not selectable.

My ideal case would be to move it to the home directory instead of the mail root directory, but I think the best option would be for it to be configurable similar to INDEXes, etc.

I can make an attempt at a patch, but it will take me a while to get up to speed on dovecot sources...

Thank you,

Hi Greg ,sounds plausible to me, you should contact Timo about this
