hi Timo,

I *think* I figured it out, the mailboxes that were causing the errors each had a file in them named “:,2” since removing those and removing the dovecot-uidlist the problem hasn’t returned.

if the Maildir has the file ":,2" in it, you get two errors the first time you select that mailbox:

Error: Broken file /<root>/Maildir/.t/dovecot-uidlist line 2: Invalid extended 
fields: :
Warning: Fixed a duplicate: /<root>/Maildir/.t/cur/:2, -> 
1382969744.M379516P28028.msa

but the ":2," remains in the Maildir. The next time the mailbox changes, e.g after "touch /<root>/Maildir/.t/cur", you only get the first error.

Actually such file should never exist in a Maildir and is most likly not created by Dovecot itself, but for robustness Dovecot could rename such file into some sane name. Tested with

# 2.2.5 (9531ec8afe8b): /usr/local/dovecot-2.2.5/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

Thanks,
