Trying to track down source of duplicate messages

Hi,

I haven't received any responses to my duplicate messages problem. It
occurred to me that I posted my full dovecot config instead of just
the changes we've made locally. I thought it might help to follow up
with just the specific config to make it easier to identify a
potential problem.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

# Pigeonhole version 0.5.5 (2483b085)
# OS: Linux 4.20.11-100.fc28.x86_64 x86_64 Fedora release 28 (Twenty Eight)
