[Dovecot] 1.1 namespaces and message corruption

[Kyle Wheeler]

Hello,




I have two namespaces, set up like so:

    namespace private { # Default
        separator = .
        hidden = no
        inbox = yes
        prefix =
        location = maildir:%h/Maildir
    }
    namespace private {
        separator = .
        hidden = no
        prefix = "INBOX.ArchiveTest."
        location = mbox:%h/Maildir/Archive
    }





Message corruption of this sort worries me...

I've been trying out the new dovecot's namespace support, and I'm having some issues moving messages between namespaces. Specifically, when I move some messages from a Maildir-based namespace to an mbox-based namespace, the message gets corrupted: its contents are removed, and an entirely empty message is added to the destination mailbox. This is 100% repeatable (some messages just *cannot* be copied intact). All I do is tell my client (mutt) to copy a message from a folder in the maildir namespace into a folder in the mbox namespace. Does anyone know what might be going wrong or how I can even debug this? No error messages of any kind are showing up in the dovecot log file, and the mail_debug setting doesn't seem to give me any useful information.
