The index will be rebuilt once you try to access the mail.
Hi Aki, I probably misunderstood yor previous reply. So, the index will be fixed when either:
- running doveadm force-sync
- accessing the mailbox (ie: via IMAP).
This means that removing an email from the filesystem (ie: a u.* file) and the index cache file (dovecot.index.cache) should be safe, as the main index file (dovecot.index) will be fixed when accessing the mailbox.
Am I missing something? Thanks.

Except now you lost the cache. Which is not really necessary. Why not use 'doveadm expunge -u victim mailbox box uid number' instead? The uid number is same as the number in file name.
