Asai articulated:

Working with dsync and setting up backups to a Windows file server.
Problem seems to be that Windows is renaming the dovecot mail files
(maildir) to Windows friendly filenames, and losing the Dovecot name.
For example,
1323817925.M36368P32049.triata.globalchangemultimedia.net,S=2255,W=2318:2,S
becomes 1AETPH~X.

Does anyone have any ideas about how to tell Windows to not do this?
Or is it not possible?
I have backed up files to a Windows server before but have never
experienced the problems you are describing. Could you please list the
Windows Server specifics, ie. version, etc.
This is a Win 2008 R2 server with NFS shares enabled. I initially copied the backups from my former backup server to this Windows box, and that's when I noticed the file names had been changed.
