Dear Colleagues,
I have made mailboxes in ~/Mail available via IMAP (Dovecot 2.3.2.1), that is: "mail_location = mbox:~/Mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u"
However, I often read and modify the mailboxes locally with mutt (e.g. append and delete mails).
Should I expect any problems wit Dovecot indexes etc? What if I even do "rm ~/Mail/some/mailbox", will Dovecot be mad at me?
Dovecot is tolerant to changes with mbox and maildir. It will reindex if it detects someone changing them outside.
That is true but it however has performance impacts if the caching is impaired but still does works.
