Is there a way to disable this feature? Seems to be causing more harm then good right now. Without getting into too much details it is fixing the duplcates but it does not remove the old file, and the new file it creates is not marked as read like the old one was. I understand that this problem can be created by multiple rsyncs and files changing in between, but is there any way that I can just turn this feature off all together? I do not see anything in the wiki regrading settings to disable.
There's no way to disable it, because it shouldn't be happening in the first place. If your rsyncs are causing it, maybe you should be using e.g. maildirlock utility to make sure Dovecot's not changing the maildir while rsync is writing.
Or you could of course always just comment out that code.
