Hello,
I'm using dovecot version 1.0.13 on reiserfs on hardware RAID-0, but I'm getting the
following error in the logs every time one user tries to access his old mails in the .Sent
directory:
dovecot: 2008-06-23 15:09:46 Error: IMAP(marek.chajecki): Invalid data in file
/var/mail/Maildir/marek.chajecki/.Sent/dovecot-uidlist
As a result he fails to get access to the emails in this folder.
I've googled a bit and read that deleting the uidlist makes dovecot recreate it, but after
some time the same thing happens. It's a new hard drive, so I don't think this is a hard
drive fault.
Some additional info: this server is being used by about 200 users who get about 100
emails daily each one of them.
Config:
root at warsaw Maildir # dovecot -n
# 1.0.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log
info_log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log

Any help will be appreciated!
