[dovecot] Re: IMAP folder problem

[Kevin Lee]

Hi,

I've tried other outlook installs and setting.
When I try to copy a folder to the imap account I get...

"Can't move the items. The move operation could not be completed. It is
possible that the destination server is unavailable or does not support
subfolders."

And when I try to copy mail to the imap folder (with subscribed folders) I
get: 

"Can't move items.  This IMAP command could not be sent to the server before
the connection was terminated"


I get some corresponding errors in dovecots logs:

"
imap-master: Feb 18 18:31:41 Error: child 60038 (imap) killed with signal 6
imap((null)): Feb 18 18:33:49 Panic: file cmd-append.c: line 25
(validate_args): assertion failed: ((unsigned int) ret == count)
imap-master: Feb 18 18:33:49 Error: child 60042 (imap) killed with signal 6
"

related?

I know this to be the case with NS7's mail client.
