[Dovecot] imap proxy setup - "killed with signal 11"

hi-

i'm setting up an imap proxy in front of a novell groupwise server.  it 
seems to so far be partially working, but dovecot is having trouble in 
certain cases.  i expect that it's ultimately due to what i believe is a 
very poor implementation of imap provided by groupwise [at least based 
on other experiences in the past] - but that's a big part of why i'd 
like to have dovecot in between it and clients.

below is information collected during starting of dovecot, 
opening/initial connection from a client [os x mail.app], closing of the 
client, and stopping of dovecot.

os is ubuntu 12.10 development/beta, dovecot is 2.1.7 courtesy of 
ubuntu's packages.
