Well, good news and bad news.
I backed up the indexes (presumably the ~/.mbox/.imap/*) and started tinkering:
dovecotadm -u username INBOX
did nothing, it didn't event produce a message in the log, and the indexes were not updated. I deleted the indexes, and let dovecot rebuild them. This fixed my inbox (good news), unfortunately, even after copying the backed-up files back I can no longer reproduce the problem.
I looked around but didn't find any other files that dovecot could be modifying, or did I miss something? Anyway, I think the problem will get back soon, as it did many times before.

Not really. I tried copying the inbox and wanted to delete half the messages to filter out the problematic one, but opening the copy works fine.
What could be the culprit? Does dovecot keep some index that might be corrupted?

Hi!
dovecot -n and backtrace are both attached in my original email, due to their size. Did the attachments not arrive?
The relevant log does not contain much more than the trace, but here it is:
Any chance to get the offending email somehow?
Aki It is possible. Can you try backing up your current index and running doveadm index -u yourusername?
