[Dovecot] why does dovecot child die on these messages?
Hi Timo and other dovecot fans,
why, when I'm trying to read certain "Drafts" emails that I just
created, or edited, do the dovecot children die (or so I think).
In mutt, the behaviour is that I "c =Drafts" then select the email and
I
get "connection closed to squeaky.rubberduck.com".
In Mail.app - she just loops, trying to read those headers again and
again and again.. (and this truss is from this instance)
I find that emails before a certain date are OK - but if i edit them and
then try and refetch them - the child dies yet again. So I removed all
.imap.* and let dovecot redo it's stuff. No go.
Some followup information before the meat of the truss:
