I'd suspect UID/GID mismatches somewhere. Make sure the machine |
| 14 |
delivering the email, the home dirs, and the machine running |
| 15 |
courier-imap all see .maildir as the same user account. You may want to |
| 16 |
put Courier-imap into verbose or debug mode as well. |

I'd also look at your NFS config to see if you're doing any squashes |
| 18 |
into other UIDs. And just for the hell of it, never use mbox over NFS. |
