I have this problem with some mailboxes (actually Maildirs) on my
system.
After some user's activity there is following information in dovecot
logs:
Jan 29 16:24:28 mailserv dovecot: IMAP(username):
unlink(/var/spool/mail/imap/user/username/Maildir/cur/Sent:2,ST)
failed:
Is a directory
Something has created a directory called Sent inside Maldir/cur or
Maildir/new. Dovecot treats it as a message and so it has added \Seen
and \Deleted flags to it. Dovecot didn't create the Sent directory,
look at other software/scripts you have.
There is one workaround I know which is:
rm /var/spool/mail/imap/user/username/Maildir/dovecot.index*
Delete the Sent* directory.
