Hi.

I try to sync from a dovecot server to another server via the following command.

doveadm -D -o mail_fsync=never -o imapc_user=info@DOMAIN.COM -o imapc_password='PASS' backup -R -u info@DOMAIN.COM imapc:

After some short runtime I get the following panic.

dsync(info@DOMAIN.COM): Panic: file mailbox-alias-plugin.c: line 77
(mailbox_symlink_exists): assertion failed: (ret > 0)

dsync(info@DOMAIN.COM): Error: Raw backtrace:

There is this message in the archive wich mention that similar directory names could be a problem.

I have cleanuped the similar directories but I still get the panic.

This are the main folders in the Account
