Hi,
Mailboxes on NFS, locked is running on both client and server (both Solaris 9). dovecot.conf settings use the default:
#mbox_read_locks = fcntl #mbox_write_locks = dotlock fcntl
What about lock_method, and are indexes in NFS or local disk?
IMAP(user): UIDs broken with partial sync in mbox file /var/mail/r/user
Does this happen often? I think there are some rarely occuring bugs in Dovecot still related to this, but I haven't yet figured out how to reproduce/fix them.
This can also happen if mbox has changed unexpectedly but also its timestamp and file size hasn't changed from what Dovecot last had seen. Pretty unlikely though..
Anyway, this problem isn't visible to users either. Dovecot just re-syncs the whole mbox afterwards.
