If you still have such a mbox, could you put it though:

http://dovecot.org/tools/mbox-anonymize.pl

And try if it still crashes, and if so send me the mbox? The script
replaces pretty much everything with "x" letters, so its output should
be pretty safe to send to me.

Otherwise it probably takes a long time for me to figure out a way to
reproduce it and fix it.. And currently I don't really have time to even
try to do it.
