Turns out this was a self inflicted wound..
Seems that NOD32 (version 4) and Thunderbird with multiple IMAP accounts
has a problem with 'duplication of emails'..
So low and behold disabling NOD32 inside TB solved the problems..
Nothing to do with dovecot..
Seems on Monday everyone had time to upgrade/update things at home..
Thanks for the help.

Ever since Columbus day things have been strange with my two dovecot

We do not have a BES just the standard BIS that comes with a personal

Several people have told me that since that Monday that they get
occasional duplicate copies of messages which only appear singularly in
their Maildir inboxes.
I myself even called VZW and got transferred to RIM themselves where
they 'reset' my account; (same as me going into the BIS server and
deleting and adding again) only to have the same thing happen; again
occasionally..
