Unfortunately this hasn't completely resolved the issue (I don't know if 
it has reduced the number of times this has happened either). FWIW I'm 
getting the same sort of segfault 28 with both imap-login and pop-login. 
I'm using dovecot-ldap, if that makes a difference. I'm not really sure 
what the best way would be to trace this problem so that I can provide 
you guys with more useful info.
