Thanks! This crash is another v2.3.10 regression in the COPY/MOVE code. Fix will be in v2.3.11 and here also: https://github.com/dovecot/core/commit/203b2b709b0477be8753ea4ae7830bedbfebb268 <https://github.com/dovecot/core/commit/203b2b709b0477be8753ea4ae7830bedbfebb268>
If the read-flag problem happened before v2.3.10 also, it's probably not related to the crash but something to do with virtual folders not syncing flags correctly. There aren't any known problems with it right now though, so I'm not sure about it.
