Good catch, thank you. (I used LAYOUT=fs at first, but found behavior a
little anomalous.  I forgot to disable the workarounds).

This may have stopped the problem of redownloading the entire mailbox
(on restart I got  downloading 1 of 8 instead of 1 of 170... 30 of 1330
in the status pane) .  My other mailboxes still need to sync and it
might take a few days to verify that things are stable.  I did get 81
immediate "Warning: Maildir /mail/mydomain.com/gessel//.Bulkmail:
Expunged message reappeared, giving a new UID" warnings on connect, but
if this is the problem, it might stop after all the directories are
resynced.

I'll update with further data as it comes in.

I am also somewhat suspect of QRSYNC from this post:
http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2011-August/130687.html  - though
this is from a long time ago and it seems a little surprising that bugs
on this seemingly useful capability would persist.  In any event (if
useful information), my capability enumeration reads:

# telnet localhost 143

* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE
IDLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Dovecot ready.

I did try setting mail.server.default.use_condstore;false in
Thunderbird, but that didn't change the behavior of reloading the entire
inbox on startup so I've changed that back as that wasn't the desired
result.


There are too many possible reasons for your problem. You should really start to locate the source of your problem by eliminating 1 possibility after the other instead of tweaking some (hidden) settings in Thunderbird.

* Find the Message-ID of one of your duplicates and grep for it on the server * Use a local client (like Mutt or Roundcube) on the server to access the mailbox
* Use a different client than Thunderbird on your PC
