[Dovecot] maildirsize corruption

2 Mar 2007


      Using maildir++ with LDA and POP/IMAP we have been seeing intermittant
maildirsize corruption.  Where an operation will be prepended by a handful
of ASCI null characters ^@^@.
Eg:
# cat maildirsize
5120000S
-46895 -1
93359 1
60576 1
2858 1
49547 1
-206340 -4
94603 1
84785 1
54463 1
82486 1
97104 1
^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@40488 1
73397 1
83662 1
24668 1
42673 1
12081 1
-713606 -12
The instances of this that we have seen have all been deliver operations.
Anyone else seen this ?
Regards
