Hi,
I'm not an expert, but am doing something similar (moving messages and training the spam filter).
To detect the existence of new messages looking directly at the maildir can be a quick and dirty solution to get a trigger event.
But to move or delete I think you should use 'doveadm' to search for all messages in your spam directory and get a list of all uids an guids. Then you can call doveadm again to move vor delete the messages by id.
Just look for "doveadm search/move/purge" in the dovecot wiki. This should ensure that the indexes stay up to date.

Hi!
I'm using Dovecot 2.2.13 (Debian Jessie package 1:2.2.13-12~deb8u1) on my personal mail server (the address I'm writing from is on this server).
I use Maildirs, I have fts + fts_squat enabled, and I have a problem with it for a long time - dovecot seems to not update the index always "incrementally".
Yesterday I've finally made a test by telneting to imap port and issuing a search request. Dovecot started to reindex the mailbox. Full reindexing has taken around 15-20 minutes.
After reindexing the fulltext searches were fast, just as they should be. And they were fast yesterday even after some new emails arrived.
But I've tried to do a new search today and Dovecot started to reindex the whole maildir again!
Why is it reindexing the whole maildir again? Could it be related to my
anti-spam scripts removing messages from SPAM imap folder? And if yes, how to remove them correctly?
