Hello, a bit of a problem with Dovecot. Version is 1.0.15 and is a default install (no changes to config) from FC8 repository... except that Dovecot is configured to use Maildir

I have a user on the system who uses the tags in Thunderbird (Important, Personal etc). When she tags the messages they cannot be deleted and their tags cannot be changed. When deleting a message from the IMAP inbox it momentarily disappears and moves a copy to the Trash but when the IMAP inbox is reloaded the message reappears. The same happens when I try to change a tag: it comes back with the previous tag.

Untagged messages can be freely deleted. Also, this problem does not happen if the messages are in a IMAP folder. They can be freely deleted.

The problem seems specific to Dovecot, not Thunderbird, as I am able to tag and delete messages in another IMAP account. Also, accessing the same IMAP account using OS X Mail the messages come back after deleting them.


Where should I start looking for a solution to this problem?
