I had trouble this morning creating a folder to contain sub-folders. I am using the mbox format. Turns out that the .imap directory in the new folder (directory) was not being created. Anytime I tried to view a sub-folder (using Thunderbird) dovecot would dump. Once I manually created the .imap directory, it works fine.
dovecot --version -> 2.0.9 I can't reproduce this. Maybe it's been fixed in v2.0.11.
I've upgraded to 2.0.11. The problem is still present.
Still crashes with same message? Try what happens if you do it manually:
Oh, I just realized the problem. You're relying on autodetection for mail location. The problem goes away if you set it explicitly:
mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
(or without INBOX, depending on where it really is)
I'll of course fix the bug anyway.
