Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone's seen anything like this?

Nov 15 14:16:13 olympic dovecot: imap-login: Login: postmaster
[192.168.0.32]
Nov 15 14:17:05 olympic dovecot: IMAP(postmaster): file
mail-index-transaction.c: line 247 (mail_index_expunge): assertion
failed: (!t->view->external)
Nov 15 14:17:05 olympic dovecot: child 20184 (imap) killed with signal 6
Nov 15 14:17:19 olympic dovecot: Killed with signal 15
Nov 15 14:17:19 olympic dovecot: Dovecot v1.0-test52 starting up

I'm running (as you might have guessed) test52 on Linux (i386) using
maildirs.  The client is Thunderbird.

This only appears to be happening when viewing certain mail folders in
the IMAP account.

As a temporary fix, it seems to stop happening when I delete the
".imap*" files in the affected folder, but this is hardly an ideal
solution.

If you want any debug-type information please send me "idiots guide"
type instructions as to how to do it - I'm not a software engineer  :?

Many thanks,
