Hello

I have problem with deliver dying with signal 11. I'm using postfix + 
dovecot devliver. If mailbox have many (100+) redirects in sieve or many 
other sieve rules deliver died. I have tested this in debian etch + 
dovecot 1.1.18 (compiled from sources) and debian lenny + dovecot 1.1.13 
from backports.

Sep  7 13:58:19 mail postfix/pipe[5964]: AC6835938: 
to=<test1 at mx.domain>, orig_to=<test1 at domain>, relay=dovecot, delay=10, 
delays=0.06/0.01/0/10,
dsn=5.3.0, status=bounced (Command died with signal 11: 
"/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver")

I try to debug by running deliver via gdbhelper:

There is a bug in dovecot code? Is there workaround?
