Hi,

I'm using dovecot 1.1.2 (but I've noticed this since 1.1.1 which I

was using until yesterday). It seems dovecot is ignoring the "S" flag in Maildir filenames, and is relying only in its Index Files to determine if a message has been read or not.

I say that because if I delete the dovecot.index.* files for a mail

folder, all the mails in there appear as unread. Also, I've tried accessing the maildir directly (using heirloom-mailx, but mutt should have done, too) and reading a new message. The file name was changed to add a "S" to the end, but this message was still marked as "unread" when the mail folder was accessed via IMAP.

The flags R, F and T are correctly read from the filename if no

index is present. I haven't tested the other flags.

I'm using dovecot's deliver, and it creates filenames such as

"1217450416.M77457P5201.mail.kalinowski.com.br,S=1377,W=1411:2,S", that is, perfectly fine.
