Show me your dovecot -n output? Where are the index files located?
The index files are on NFS (home directory), ~/Mail/INBOX points to /var/mail/joe on local fs.
Is Dovecot running on more than one computer? That error message looks exactly like what would happen if Dovecot saw two different INBOXes but the same index files were tried to be used with both of them.
Our IMAP(s)/POP3(s) server is a single host so this should not happen.
http://wiki.dovecot.org/MboxProblems anyway lists all the possible reasons for that problem.
I've now put the whole Mail directory of the user on a local filesystem to see if that makes a difference.
