This problem gets rather annoying. Isn't there anything that I can try to resolve this? It dovecot can't work so well with its indices, is there an option to disable them? I keep on deleting those files to get rid of phantom new mail.

Hi,
I'm using dovecot 1.0_beta3 on Gentoo Linux, and am experiencing a problem of what I call 'phantom mail'. This problem I have for a long time (pre 1.0), but at the moment I'm using 1.0_beta3 and the problem still is in there.
My setup is as follows:
- regular x86 box
- running Exim and Dovecot
- Exim saves new mail in maildir format in a local filesystem /mail/user/blabla
- Dovecot reads and serves IMAP from local filesystem /mail/user/blabla
- client is Mutt and/or Thunderbird from any OS (Mac, Linux, Windows) via IMAP
FTR, I can confirm this with Fedora Core 4/i386 and 5/i386, sendmail, mbox, and Evolution 2.2.3 and 2.6.0. Backing down to 1.0 beta 2 seemed to stop it, but we'll see for how long...
