We've found some serious although uncommon errors in forces and energies 
when using the Verlet scheme:

- when using ewald_geometry = 3dc without vacuum layer in the box
- when using ewald_geometry = 3d (default) and epsilon_surface != 0

For more info see

Please note that both these conditions are very unlikely to happen.
