Hi Timo,

The "can't delete mailbox INBOX" error is gone now with changeset 
c077ca9bc306 and it's working successfully on the account from yesterday 
where it also worked with mailbox_list_index=no.

However using a different account (more mail and mailboxes) I'm seeing 
dbox corruption errors. I have tested with mailbox_list_index=yes and no 
and it's the same for both. So this might be unrelated to this setting. 
Attached are logs from doveadm backup runs. First to an empty directory 
and 2 consecutive runs.

Thanks,
e-frog
