Version 2.1.16 logs the following error:

Apr 16 18:07:58 10.129.3.249 dovecot: stats: Error: Mail server input error: UPDATE-SESSION user1 at example.org pop3: stats shrank: mlpath 1 < 2
Apr 16 18:46:44 10.129.3.233 dovecot: stats: Error: Mail server input error: UPDATE-SESSION user2 at example.org pop3: stats shrank: mlpath 3 < 4

Were there any reasons NOT to apply stats.diff the 2.1.x branch or did you simply overlook my mail?

Regards
Daniel
