My only guess is that the imap process doesn't have permissions to rename the files. This seems plausible. I'll have another look at the permissions.

Timo,

On this specific point I cannot see anything wrong on my system.

The maildir folders all have permissions 0700 and the messages in all folders 0600. Owner and group are the same throughout all my folders.
