dovecot - Jun 2012 - Inconsistent search results and crash on force-resync

Hi,

I am seeing inconsistencies in search results (finding 2 emails when only 1
exists, finding the email when it has been moved to another folder, etc).

I figured I should run force-resync to fix any issues. I ran the following:
doveadm -v force-resync -u <user> <mailbox> and I got some worrysome
logs.
  - I should mention that I have been seeing some crashes of fts-lucene in
my logs. I sent a traceback of this on the mailing list 1-2 days ago under
the subject "[Dovecot] fts_lucene crashing".
  - I should also mention that all the problems I am having are only in 1
email account. This email account contains folders of over 100k emails. Do
I need to tweak dovecot somehow for this? Up until now all I did was change
vsz_limit to 1024 MB for "service imap".


Here are the logs:

I have 3 questions:

  1) When the log says "/mailboxes/INBOX2/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index reset,
view is now inconsistent" should I be worried, or this will fix itself?

  2) Should I expect to see "Error: Recent flags state corrupted for
mailbox Sent"??? I ran the force-resync 3 times and I still see this
message.

  3) Any idea why clucene is crashing?


Regards,
