Hi,

since I upgraded dovecot to version 2.3.21 on a FreeBSD 13.2 system, I've been seeing a few occurences of the following warnings daily:

Jan 11 13:13:25 dimokritos dovecot[33170]: lmtp(user1)<8209><SId/BlXNn2URIAAA+iYuTQ:T2>: Warning: mdbox /var/vmail/users/user1/mdbox/storage: Inconsistency in map index (5,40 != 5,56) Jan 11 13:13:25 dimokritos dovecot[33170]: lmtp(user1)<8209><SId/BlXNn2URIAAA+iYuTQ:T2>: Warning: fscking index file /var/vmail/users/user1/mdbox/storage/dovecot.map.index Jan 11 13:13:25 dimokritos dovecot[33170]: lmtp(user1)<8209><SId/BlXNn2URIAAA+iYuTQ:T2>: Warning: mdbox /var/vmail/users/user1/mdbox/storage: rebuilding indexes Jan 11 13:13:26 dimokritos dovecot[33170]: lmtp(user1)<8209><SId/BlXNn2URIAAA+iYuTQ:T2>: Warning: fscking index file /var/vmail/users/user1/mdbox/storage/dovecot.map.index

The numbers in parentheses seem to always be of the format (x,40 != x,56) or 
(x,40 != x,72).

I also get such errors on some users when purging (doveadm-purge fails with 
error 75):

doveadm(user2): Warning: mdbox /var/vmail/users/user2/mdbox/storage: Inconsistency in map index (5,40 != 5,72) doveadm(user2): Warning: fscking index file /var/vmail/users/user2/mdbox/storage/dovecot.map.index
doveadm(user2): Warning: mdbox /var/vmail/users/user2/mdbox/storage: rebuilding 
indexes
doveadm(user2): Error: Purging namespace '' failed: BUG: Unknown internal error

If I rerun doveadm purge for this user it completes successfully.

Can anyone shed some light on what might be causing these messages? I didn't have these with 2.3.20. Should I be worried about data loss due to these index inconsistencies?
