Any thoughts on this Timo? Just wondering if you were able to
reproduce the problem and saw the same behavior. We can look into it
more if need be, but since I can replicate it on both Fedora and
Solaris, I'm guessing it's a fundamental bug with how certain
malformed emails are searched.
Interesting that the only two people who reported this were running on
Solaris. Anyway, fixed:
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/a2013dedbad0
In my case the error occured only sometimes. I made several tests with the
patch applied and the errror seems to be gone.
Thanks.

I suppose that could be thought of as a DoS attack, but since it
requires user to search messages and have a very special kind of email,
and by default imap process size is limited to 256 MB, I don't think
I'll bother releasing v1.1.14 because of it.
