When I was having trouble with some users getting other users' mailboxes I tried upgrading to dovecot-stable-20050302 (dovecot-1.0-test59). After getting it installed and configured, though, half of the users could read their inbox fine, and the other half would only see a single email in the inbox (the oldest one, it seemed... separators not being recognized between emails for some users? weird...).
So, I went back to the original, and emailed you guys about the problem.
I'll try upgrading again this weekend, though, and report back if the "single email mailbox" problem happens again.
Thanks! .josh

Hi all, Two users on our system have recently had trouble reading their inbox, and it seems to be a result of their inbox getting corrupted.
In the most recent case, their Mailbox file (in /home/eric/Mailbox in this case), has the following as the first line:

Is this with v0.99.x? It has some random problems with mboxes. dovecot-stable and 1.0-test releases have rewritten mbox code.
