Hi,

First of all, being NFS, I presume the system does not support
locking. Might it be an idea to check that the user isn't using two
clients at the same time? I found that this became a problem over NFS
when a user was using both a webmail interface and a standard client
eg Thunderbird on the same account.

Where does Dovecot put the INDEX? My problem disappeared as soon as I
set INDEX=MEMORY.

Kind regards,
Ronald.
