I will generate core dumps with GDB at SEGFAULT point – will this suit you? Where should I upload them? > That said - it's interesting that you get so many processes crashing.

I think that the problem is somehow connected to the one I have reported a while ago here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=604468 My feeling is that all above processes are crashing as they share the same problematic code, and this can well be the code that works with mailboxes. If you can have a look the the patch I have attached to that bug report, I will appreciate. -- With best regards, Dmitry ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
