Expunged message reappeared to mailbox

26 Sep 2015


      Hi,
I'm using dovecot-2.2.18 on fedora22 and receiving the following messages:
Sep 26 11:07:52 orion dovecot: imap(dave): Error: Sync failed for mbox
file /var/spool/mail/alex: Expunged message reappeared to mailbox (UID
267101 < 267175, seq=2, idx_msgs=0)
How do I troubleshoot this? Any idea what could be causing it?
I've included my doveconf below.
# 2.2.18: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
