[Dovecot] subdir disappeared

I have an installation that sometimes acts strangely:

Jun 12 11:28:00 mail dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<nadia>, 
method=PLAIN, rip=10.10.10.103, lip=10.10.10.254
Jun 12 11:53:59 mail dovecot: IMAP(nadia): 
inotify_add_watch(/var/spool/mail/nadia/new) failed: No such file or 
directory
Jun 12 11:53:59 mail dovecot: IMAP(nadia): 
stat(/var/spool/mail/nadia/new) failed: No such file or directory

Jun 12 12:02:14 mail dovecot: IMAP(nadia): 
stat(/var/spool/mail/nadia/new) failed: No such file or directory
Jun 12 12:03:23 mail dovecot: IMAP(nadia): Disconnected: Logged out
.....
Jun 13 12:08:01 mail dovecot: IMAP(nadia): 
unlink(/var/spool/mail/nadia/cur/:2,ST) failed: Is a directory

Needless to say that no modification has been made to the server for 
many days and the user did not complain until that time.

Could it be Dovecot? Is there a way to trace this error?

The MTS is Postfix and in that period the user did not receive any mail

The system is a Fedora 6
2.6.20-1.2952.fc6 #1 SMP Wed May 16 17:59:13 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 
GNU/Linux

You cannot achieve the impossible without attempting the absurd.
