[Dovecot] (auth) killed with signal 11
Running rc24 and with one user in particular they are getting "(auth) killed with signal 11" when trying to pop email. IMAP works. What causes this?

More information, switching back to RC22 seems to solve the problem.

Probably fixed by this: http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2007-February/007898.html
But it should have crashed only for broken authentication attempts.

That may be the case. When I switched back to RC22 I noticed the user had a space in the password on one of the ends. I wonder if you should trim white space around the password?

No. Space is a valid character in the password. Dovecot must (and does) handle spaces in the password, including leading and trailing spaces.
