Hi,
sorry for the double post, I stupidly composed this as a reply to an earlier mail, which causes it to appear in an older thread. Posting again so it doesn't get lost in the archives:
dovecot 1.1.7 reliably crashes every time I try to open a mailbox using IMAP. Error in the logs:

(it goes on until the daemon is killed)

Doing a system call trace via tusc -p -v -o dovetrace -k -f dovecot I get the following for a crashed process (different pid since I didn't want to do the tusc on the same run). Lines start with the [5301]:

Anything you can think of that would help?
