Try 3:

• Stop dovecot on SV2
• Clear all dovecot indexes on SV2
• Rsync of my mailbox
• Edit mailbox and move X-UID header after the X-Keywords header

The important change was that X-UID: came after X-IMAPbase: header.

• Start dovecot on SV2
• Update pop setting in outlook and send/receive

Result : => OK.

Is that normal that dovecot is impacted by the position of the
headers ? Maybe some improvement possible ?

I did think about previously if it should work like this, but it
seemed like a lot more extra work to support this kind of a situation
properly and I thought it shouldn't happen normally anyway. I guess
v0.99.x then wrote them in wrong order..
