Hello
We only saw such errors with replication between two machines, when new emails where errornously deliverd to both of them or clients connected to both simultaniously.
Do you have such a setup?
Kind regards, Christian Mack

Hi all,
I am using dovecot-2.3.17_1 on FreeBSD system.
This server offers webmail, pop3 and imap access for users.
Today I am receiving several complaints from users about slowness and/or access issues.
I checked on my /var/log/maillog and I see lots of:
Error: Timeout (180s) while waiting for lock for transaction log file /var/domains/domain.it/username/Maildir/dovecot.list.index.log (WRITE lock held by pid 84939)
Error: Corrupted transaction log file /var/domains/domain.it/otherusername/Maildir/dovecot.list.index.log seq 2: indexid changed: 1643184505 -> 1643205059 (sync_offset=0)
Error: Transaction log file /var/domains/otherdomain.net/otheruser/Maildir/dovecot.list.index.log: marked corrupted
Not all users seem affected. My mailbox, for example, is working fine.
I checked on my disks (this is a ZFS volume) and I didn't find errors/warnings.
Any suggestion?
This is my dovecot configuration:
