I have the same problem, since migration to 2.0. Mainly it happens on INBOX (well, I’ve only seen this happen on INBOX), but I did not found a way to reproduce it. It happened to the same user more than once. I have 15 users. Only one mailbox a time, well, as I said before it happens only on INBOX and yes, more than one user per time. >> Our setup has a load balance (dovecot director) and three backend >> server.
