Can reproduce the crash with mutt and sylpheed, I don't think that it 
is a client issue because it works well with 1.2.x

I'll try to summarize:

- the crash happens when I try to upload several message from my
  local mbox to my server running dovecot 2.0beta with mbox
- copying messages between mboxes on the server side works
- seems to be unrelated to clients, same behaviour with mutt and 
  sylpheed
- looks like a timing problem to me, sometimes the crash happens
  after one message transfered, sometimes after two or three

Rawlog follows with private mail.


Thanks
