I performed a hg pull today for 1.0.1 and after recompilation my log
was flooded with:

Jul 12 10:29:21 postamt dovecot: IMAP(kxx4): UID larger than next_uid in file /home/k/j/kxx4/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist (6 >= 0)
Jul 12 10:29:21 postamt dovecot: IMAP(rexxxes): UID larger than next_uid in file /home/r/e/rexxxes/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist (1 >= 0)
Jul 12 10:29:21 postamt dovecot: IMAP(sxxkim): Maildir /home/s/i/sxxkim/Maildir sync: UIDVALIDITY changed (1184228955 -> 3086699759)

and people were reporting "the IMAP server closing and dropping connections".

I then downloaded 1.0.1 from the webpage, rebuilt and the problems
are gone.

Now I'm getting those:
Jul 12 10:33:10 postamt dovecot: IMAP(blxxe): Corrupted index cache file /home/b/l/blxxe/Maildir/dovecot.index.cache: indexid changed

Somethin amiss with the index code?
