dovecot - Aug 2007 - dovecot.index.cache weirdness

Hi Timo,

Just a quick check, may I know if the following output of idxview is 
normal? (see bottom of e-mail)

I am running dovecot-1.0.3 on a Solaris 10 SPARC box. Deleting 
dovecot.index.cache does not seem to help for this user; it keeps 
getting regenerated with these same lines.

I seems that I have to set mmap_disable=yes on this box to have a 
"clean-looking" dovecot.index.cache.

Is it mmap related? Or it just happens to be a coincidence?

Cheers,
Tan Shao Yi

These are just new messages which the client hasn't seen yet, so they
don't have any data in cache file.
