Summary:                    IMAPd segfaults using CONDSTORE
Description: 
After upgrading to dbmail 3.2.0 the IMAPd tends to crash often. Sometimes
within a few seconds after restart (depending on how many users are
accessing the server).
Debugging the core dumps shows that
in _ic_status_enter at imapcommands.c:1520
the following line segfaults

self->mailbox->condstore = true;

gdb shows that self->mailbox is NULL.

Maybe a simple check against NULL before accessing the variable could fix
it. On ther other hand I do not know whether it should be possible for
mailbox to be NULL in such a situation.

I worked around this issue by remove CONDSTORE from the capability list
announced by the server to the client. Now I do not notice any crashes
since the clients do not use CONDSTORE anymore.

I think commit edd6179d638d4257d0a669de582f8770370a7364 (2015-01-11
18:08:35 GMT) which is included in dbmail 3.2.3 addressed this issue.
So far I haven't noticed any more segfaults.
Thanks a lot!
