I have to migrate some old system to new one with installed dovecot

is that
dovecot doesn't clear mbox file (everytime when I make send/receive in
mailclient program I get all mails again).
If I look into log file I see (when I do send/receive in mail client
program)

Do you also see any error messages? They may be in a different log
file: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Logging
My guess would be that there's a permission error with creating the
dotlock file. http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation/Mbox
