That statement of mine has been incorrect:

#) I did investigate a bit further, and I do see those errors at about 20 days 
spread over the last year. 
#) And what puzzles me even more is the fact that only server2 reports those 
errors, not a single line in server1's log files.
#) All those error messages above are paralleled by messages like:

   Apr  2 17:10:49 <mail.err> server2.lan dovecot: doveadm: Error: Couldn't 
lock /home/to/USER1/.dovecot-sync.lock: \
   fcntl(/home/to/USER1/.dovecot-sync.lock, write-lock, F_SETLKW) locking 
failed: Timed out after 30 seconds \
   (WRITE lock held by pid 51110)

#) I did upgrade both servers to 2.3.1 a couple of hours ago, and haven't seen 
a single error, yet.

I do have to admit that I do not understand what is going on at server2, and I 
am quite sure it has nothing to do with dovecot.
Sorry for the noise. 
It has nothing to do with dovecot 2.3.1

Michael
