With RC1 and earlier (dovecot-20060620.tar.gz) build I noticed a small 
bug regarding size information ("S=") in the Maildir filenames.
If you move a single message (w/ or w/o "S=" in filename) from one 
folder to other, Dovecot keeps or puts size info in filename.
If you move few messages at once, only first or last (I don't know how 
to find this exactly) moved message has this info in filename. From the 
rest of messages, this info is deleted.
