Seems the delete opeation locks the mailbox list, and then the expunge create
hits the same lock. Is this something we can fix by changing settings? Eg use
another location for the expunge lock?

FYI, we saw one panic on our director/lmtp-proxy yesterday. It's running
dovecot v2.0.13, so it very well might have been fixed already.., but here
it is anyway:

email trough our dovecot director (lmtp proxy) to the backend lmtp
servers, and are seeing this logged on the frontend mail gateways:

I haven't tried that, but know the theory quite well. There are 2 or 3 options:
I have:
mail_home = /srv/mailstore/%256RHu/%d/%n
mail_location = maildir:~/:INDEX=/indexes/%1u/%1.1u/%u
userdb {
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext
driver = ldap
}
and the dovecot-ldap.conf.ext specifies:
user_attrs
I now have "mail_home = /srv/mailstore/%256RHu/%d/%n". Is there any way
of asking dovecot where a user's home directory is?
It's not in "doveadm user":

I've been running continous dsync backups of our Maildirs for a few

idea was that the destination server would act as a warm copy of
all our active users data.
The active servers are using Maildir, and has:
