Am I wrong? you may be right. I don't know if any tools like doveadm deduplicate will check for orphans. On a new server you could disable sis and use a filesystem with deduplication instead (e.g. vdo) > This is why I first use doveadm flags/expunge to mark as removed all messages > then I use doveadm purge to remove them from storage.
