Warning: Expunged message reappeared, giving a new UID with FTS enabled

[symphorien_dovecot at xlumurb.eu]

Hello,

In some conditions with FTS enabled I get this warning:

Warning: Expunged message reappeared, giving a new UID

Here is how I can reproduce it:

I have a test setup with a (postfix) virtual alias 
multi-alias at example.com which delivers emails to user1@ and user2@

If
* I send an email to multi-alias@
* expunge user1@ mailbox with
doveadm expunge -u user1 at example.com mailbox Inbox ALL

then the warning fires.


If
* FTS plugin is disabled (I tried with squat and xapian), or
* multi-alias@ redirects to only user1@
* I send the email directly to user1@

then no warning.

Can I just ignore the warning ?
