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.
http://wiki.dovecot.org/MboxProblems anyway lists all the possible reasons for that problem.
