When it's dumping contents to the screen, it's not stderr, but stdout. I
collected 224Gb of logs tonight before the backup aborted. (Good thing
this is a backup host with storage capacity…)
The point where it started dumping content during that first run was here:
create 600 5000/5000 92
var/vmail/domain.tld/frank/Maildir/dovecot-keywords
create 600 5000/5000 2363352
var/vmail/domain.tld/frank/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist
create 600 5000/5000 8
var/vmail/domain.tld/frank/Maildir/dovecot-uidvalidity
create 444 5000/5000 0
var/vmail/domain.tld/frank/Maildir/dovecot-uidvalidity.555ef901
create 600 5000/5000 838408

I tried excluding the entire directory to see if the problem still
occurred, this time on a different location perhaps, and it did… so it's
not any specific file in that directory.
The second time, it started acting up here:
Can't open /var/lib/backuppc/pc/host.hypervisor.srv.1024.lu/858/f%2f for
MD4 check (err=-3, .)
.: md4 doesn't match: will retry in phase 1; file removed
Must redo 0 (.)\n

So I don't know where to head on from here.
