The dovecot lda panics with "Trying to sync mailbox INBOX with open transactions" if a user has no sieve script defined. Debugging shows:
Sep 14 19:49:26 server dovecot: [ID 583609 local0.debug] lda(userxx):
Debug: sieve: user's script path /home/grp/userxx/.dovecot.sieve
doesn't exist (using global script path in stead)
Sep 14 19:49:26 server dovecot: [ID 583609 local0.debug] lda(userxx):
Debug: sieve: user has no valid personal script

Sep 14 19:49:26 server dovecot: [ID 583609 local0.error] lda(userxx):

I then did create an empty sieve script file with touch /home/grp/userxx/.dovecot.sieve and after that lda worked:
Sep 14 19:50:55 server dovecot: [ID 583609 local0.debug] lda(userxx):

I think the lda worked in previous releases without a sieve script
file in the users home directory.
