Then I have no idea. Clients shouldn't have noticed any differences between old and new server. If you find a bug in something from Dovecot's side, let me know.

Did you use the courier-dovecot-migrate.pl script? If not, Dovecot set new IMAP UIDVALIDITY and UID numbers to mails and the problems are most likely related to clients not realizing that they should drop their internal caches.
[Dovecot] Issues w/ Apple devices after migration to dovecot
Hi guys. Recently we've moved our old (and I mean _really_ old) mailserver to a new hardware. Since I had quite some time on my hands, I decided to switch from courier to dovecot. Transition went pretty smoothly and the users experienced just a few hours' blackout. Only trouble now is that, after re-configuring some IOS handsets and tablets, not all messages are displayed correctly. For example, I had a long existing mailbox (roughly 1600 emails in INBOX and about a dozen other folders) that showed up perfectly on my iphone. Now it's been synced to the new dovecot server via imap and a whole month of messages seems to be missing. I checked on the server, via webmail and with outlook and everything is where it should be. The problem shows up on Apple devices (same thing happened on a couple of ipads). I haven't tried rebuilding the index or wiping out a phone to see if that resolves the problem, but before I do that I'd like to know if anyone experienced the same issue and how they fixed it Thanks! Kurt
