Hi Adrian, Aurel.
I am not sure why Adrian consider that .dovecot.lda-dupes would have been changed like this?
Your problem is that you have configured mail home and mail location to point to same place, causing dovecot to consider .dovecot.lda-dupes as a maildir folder.
This is a very common misconfiguration, which leads into exactly this kind of issues.
The recommended configuration is to configure mail_location=maildir:~/mail to avoid this issue.

Hi Aurel, apparently before 2.3.17 '.dovecot.lda-dupes' and '.dovecot.lda-dupes.lock' where files, but starting with this release they are full folders with cur/new/tmp in them.
Don't know if this is a bug or something is missing from the docs.
