Hey list,

I have been using 0.99.14 for a while now but recently decided to try to upgrade to 1.0alpha4 to get the latest and greatest. I'm building from source myself on a Slackware 10.0 machine. Slackware ships with UW-IMAP configured to keep your inbox in /var/spool/mail and your other folders in ~/. I've been using the same setup for dovecot so that the migration is smooth...so my default_mail_env is set to:

default_mail_env = mbox:~/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u

I'm able to connect to both pop and imap servers and authenticate myself, but as soon as I attempt to get a listing of my emails my dovecot setting crashes with the following in the mail logs:

Nov 3 10:52:40 shallowhal dovecot: imap(jeremy): file mail-index-sync-ext.c: line 155 (get_ext_header): assertion failed: (memcmp((char *)(ext_hdr + 1), ext->name, strlen(ext->name)) == 0)

I can trigger this over POP3 just by logging in, then issuing "USER username", "PASS password", and then "LIST".

Anyone experienced anything like this before? Any ideas on what might be going on? I can include more debug information (like my dovecot.conf file) if it would help.
