Hi
i have recently moved a mailbox to dovecot and intend to use it via imap and i have run into a problem.
when i imported the mails apparently the UID order got reversed compared to the date order, result is that some clients like on android devices download the oldest mails instead of newest. it is not so interesting to have several years old mail show up at the top of the mailbox.
is there any way of convincing dovecot to renumber the mails by date order instead? i have tried to delete the dovecot-uidlist and dovecont.index* files in an unimportant folder and the only thing that happens was that all of the mails got renumbered in the wrong order again (lower numbers but still same problem)
any advice? i cant be the only one that have run into this.
