[Dovecot] coredump in dovecot 2.0.11
Hi. I use dovecot-2.0.11-1.fc14.i686 on linux,redhat fedora 14.
Using alpine 2.02 and Kmail 1.13.5 i have one IMAP connection to the dovecot server and one IMAP connection to a MS exchange server. After i moved a few messages from the exchange server i cannot open the folders where i placed the moved mails.
instead dovecot crashes, all other directories and emails work fine.
here is what i see in /var/log/messages:
Apr 9 08:23:10 server00 abrt[28509]: saved core dump of pid 28508 (/usr/libexec/dovecot/imap) to /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-1302330190-28508.new/coredump (626688 bytes) Apr 9 08:23:10 server00 abrtd: Directory 'ccpp-1302330190-28508' creation detected Apr 9 08:23:10 server00 abrtd: Crash is in database already (dup of /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-1302111878-7921) Apr 9 08:23:10 server00 abrtd: Deleting crash ccpp-1302330190-28508 (dup of ccpp-1302111878-7921), sending dbus signal
I can post the coredump but i will have to clean it first as i can see it contains a few emails. would it help to post the coredump or shuould i skip that?

The core file itself isn't useful, because it's highly system specific. Posting a gdb backtrace from it would be very useful though. So basically:
gdb /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap core bt full
