I coincidentally resurrected a months-old thread with this same issue a few
days ago. I'm seeing the exact same after upgrading from 2.2.32 to 2.2.36.
The original poster (who also narrowed it down to something in 2.2.34)
mentioned a workaround that does indeed work, namely setting
mailbox_list_index=no:
> doveadm -o 'mailbox_list_index=no' quota recalc -u myuser
I've been staring at diffs of 2.2.33 and 2.2.34 without anything jumping
out at me (not a C guy, sadly). Maybe src/lib-storage/index/index-storage.c
or src/lib-storage/list/mailbox-list-fs-iter.c or
src/lib-storage/list/mailbox-list-index-iter.c
or src/lib-storage/list/mailbox-list-index.c?
The latter few have some added strcmp's against "INBOX". Then
again,
there's a lot of new code in the diffs under src/lib-storage that
references INBOX specifically.
