Timo,

Wow, rc20 blew up on me bigtime.  I had to back it out in less than
a minute.  Core dump and everything.  The syslog shows:

Feb  2 08:59:43 karst dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] IMAP(jaearick): file mail-cache.c: line 398 (mail_cache_lock): assertion failed: (!cache->locked)Feb  2 08:59:43 karst dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] IMAP(jaearick): Raw backtrace: 0x77fbc -> 0x52010 -> 0x5407c -> 0x54fb8 -> 0x5b838 -> 0x51288 -> 0x36928 -> 0x69610 -> 0x23e68 -> 0x1ebec -> 0x1ef7c -> 0x22068 -> 0x2226c -> 0x22800 -> 0x7d614 -> 0x7ce24 -> 0x2aedc -> 0x1d8b4

Will do a backtrace on the core in a minute.  My setup: Solaris 10,
mbox, NFS mount of INBOX from another Solaris 10 system, no plugins.
