We're currently running 2.1.16. I've been wanting to update to a 2.2.X version, but have been running into problems, even with the latest (2.2.12). I'm not sure at what version this issue appeared, but I believe I've tried 2.2.10, 2.2.11, and now 2.2.12.
We have a shared maildir setup. With that configuration in place and with a user in the dovecot-acl file, I can do the following to make it segfault every time. Note if I comment out the shared namespace config, it does not segfault.
/private/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap -u tom2

The /a1 and /a2 mentioned here for shared folders and indexes are both local ext4 file systems.

Here is the output of dovecot -n:

==============
I've got core dumps from it. I assume the gdb examples give a reverse trace of the calls. If more is needed, I can supply.
Core was generated by `/private/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap -u tom2'.
