 This seems to happen when dovecot-lda attempts to deliver a mail to multiple
 aliases resolving to the same user. For example:
 
 # /etc/aliases
 xiiph:  xi...@example.com
 admin:  xi...@example.com
 
 Sending a mail to both xiiph and admin (for example as to and cc) will result 
 in
 one mail being delivered, and one mail bounced with signal 11 from 
 dovecot-lda.

I think that simply causes two dovecot-ldas to be executed at the same
time. And that probably causes a race condition that causes the crash.
Did you already try patched with
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/raw-rev/e2f9baa436f2 ?

  Difficult to do anything about this without a gdb backtrace. Can you
  reproduce it by manually running dovecot-lda? If not, getting a core
  dump would be the next best way to get a backtrace.

  Hi,
 
  I become aware this error today too. I checked my log, first time it 
  ocourrs was Sep. 28, should be with version 2.0.3.
 
  Every time a core file is generated at ~account. (maildir)
  Can I do something with that file?
 
  After postfix is killed it starts again and delivers this message. I 
  think the message was still queued by postfix. Additionally the sender 
  gets a non delivery.
 
  regards
 
 Please make a gdb backtrace as described here:

 Regards,

This has happened to me too. After a bit of investigation I believe I found what
causes it, and I have successfully managed to reproduce it.

This seems to happen when dovecot-lda attempts to deliver a mail to multiple

# /etc/aliases
xiiph:  xi...@example.com
admin:  xi...@example.com

Sending a mail to both xiiph and admin (for example as to and cc) will result in
one mail being delivered, and one mail bounced with signal 11 from dovecot-lda.

The server behaves as I would want it to, only deliver one mail and not two to
the same user, but I would wish for it to silently ignore the error and suppress
the warning mail, as it may confuse senders.
