Dealing with dovecot X-UID bug

(via www.hollenback.net)

I recently had to deal with a dovecot imap server bug which results in invalid X-UID headers in mbox mail spool files. The fix is somewhat annoying because you have to both upgrade dovecot and delete the invalid headers from mail spool files. This page is a writeup of the process I used, including a shell script to help automate it.
