Increased errors "Broken MIME parts" in log file

1 Jun 2016


      Hi,
after the last upgrade to Dovecot 2.2.24.2 (d066a24) I see an increased
number of errors "Broken MIME parts" for users in dovecot log file, here
an example:
Jun 01 15:25:29 Error: imap(alessio.cecchi@skye.it): Corrupted index

I try to run:

doveadm index -u alessio.cecchi@skye.it INBOX
doveadm force-resync -u alessio.cecchi@skye.it INBOX
delete all dovecot.* files for user

but the error reappears always (for the same UID) when I do "search"
from webmail. All works fine for the users but I don't think is good to
have these errors in log file.
