Hi list

I have weird issue with my Dovecot 2.3.17.1 (476cd46418) When deleting a certain amount of messages from my INBOX via my MUA (Evolution) all over sudden dovecot starts to panic

I also sometimes see this on 2.3.19.1:

The actual core dump would be useful. The backtrace is nice, but it does not really help figuring out what went wrong in this case.
