dovecot - Jul 2004 - mailbox problem

Hi guys,

	I use a virtual mailbox setup with dovecot/postfix. Which reside under
/virtual. I get an error message which doesn't return anything
interesting in Google. I get this:

imap(user at domain.com): File isn't in mbox format:
/virtual/domain.com/user/imapd/Trash

I have no idea on how to fix this. I seem to be able to delete messages
though. But I'd like to repair this, since I like to have clean logs ;)

Thanks for your time,

It means the Trash file doesn't look like mbox, ie. the first line
doesn't start with "From ". You probably have some extra empty
line
there at the beginning and Dovecot doesn't like it. There's some bug in
0.99 code which sometimes makes that happen.
