Hi. My experience was only when I deleted files. I think dovecot does not complain if there are new files in the folder, but if there are files missing, it complains. I think it's normel that programs deliver mail into the folder, but normaly, whitout dovecot no file is deleted. So dovecot thinks there is missing s.th. and complains
I just tried out and deleted some mails in a Mailbox/cur Folder. No problem. I willllll investigate more on the error I had with my client and will tell you about the results. Andreas Am Montag, 12.
