 Has anyone the same issue?
 Any guess whether it might be a thunderbird or dovecot issue?
 Anyone has the same issues with thunderbird and a different IMAP server (e.g. 
 cyrus)?

it's a TB problem and happens with dbmail-imapd too from time to time

in fact similar things are happening for sure with Apple Mail and
i would say in the one or another form it affects all clients
with local caches which had to deal with connection troubles, program
crashes or power outages at the wrong moment and my expierience shows
that folders/accounts with a desktop MUA, 2 smartphones and a tablet
are more likely affected

repair folder rebuilds the .msf file

once per year i stop TB and remove all .msf files from my profile
interesting what like unfinished drafts and such things sometime appear :-)

Dovecot, Thunderbird and messages in wrong folder

2014-08-07 Thread Gerhard Wiesinger 

Hello,

Sometimes it happens that messages (e.g. one or two) appear in wrong 
folders in Thunderbird (latest version, also past versions, different 
computers, also Earlybird). When I repair the folder 
(folder/Settings/Repair Folder) in Thunderbird, the folder is correct then.


It happens on my new server with Fedora 20, Dovecot 2.2.13 and Maildir 
but it also happened on my old server with Fedora 1, Dovecot 2.2.13 and 
mbox.


Has anyone the same issue?

(e.g. cyrus)?


Thank you.

Ciao,
Gerhard
