Hi,
I dont do anything with the dovecot-uidlist.
This is part of what the rawlog looks like (with a folder that started getting new headers):
tbgy SELECT "My Folders.Klanten" rty3 UID FETCH 1668:* (UID FLAGS RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[HEADER] INTERNALDATE) 9d54 UID FETCH 1:1667 (UID FLAGS) 0ntr UID FETCH 1667 (UID FLAGS BODY.PEEK[] INTERNALDATE) znim IDLE DONE 4ogq UID FETCH 1668 (UID FLAGS BODY.PEEK[] INTERNALDATE) 5131 IDLE
How should I interpret this? I see 1668 and 1667?
Cheers,
Jan

Typically that means that the mailbox's UIDVALIDITY has changed. Or the messages get assigned new UIDs for some reason (e.g. Dovecot sees that they're gone, later sees them again). You could verify these by using e.g. rawlog (http://wiki.dovecot.org/Debugging/Rawlog) and seeing if the UIDVALIDITY value after SELECT command changes and if the returned UIDs get changed.
Do you do anything on the server with dovecot-uidlist files? Or dovecot.index* files? Like deleting them once in a while as someone was doing in a cron job? :)
