dovecot - Feb 2019 - Can't sync mailbox XXX: Mailbox isn't selectable

Hi,

I have users with file system folders, which contain mbox files and 
dovecot indexes, in the ~/mail directory.

If I run dsync, I have an error message and the sync can not be completed:

Can't sync mailbox FOLDER_NAME: Mailbox isn't selectable

I could not find any solution via google or any hint what to do in this 
situation. Thanks for your help and suggestion,
Tamas

Just a shot in the dark, but you don't happen to have
"NO_NOSELECT" option
in your mail_location setting, do you?  I recall some of our user mailbox
were inaccessible when I enabled this.
