:lightbulb: that explains it :)

dovecot-20070117.tar.gz seems to have fixed the reproducible crash, but
I did get a couple of extra compiler warnings (gcc 3.3.2):-

mail-index.c: In function `mail_index_parse_extensions':
mail-index.c:342: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned
mail-index.c: In function `mail_index_map_clone':
mail-index.c:1242: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned

Best Wishes,
Chris
