i'm not the expert you're looking for, so dont take my word as one. And i'm basically using Maildir instead of mdbox ...
Anyway, i have dropped 'dovecot.index*' from some backups, full and incremental ones, action which made me save some Gbs of space on them. I already restored some accounts from these backups and had absolutely no problem at all !

I am using mdbox for dovecot storage. I wonder if I could skip "dovecot.index.cache" files and, in general, "*.cache" files when doing mail backup. Those files are big and change frequently. What I feel from reading documentation [1][2] is that they could be dropped in the backups, to be recreated on the fly if needed. But I would like expert confirmation.
