Thank you for reply.

But Dovecot 2.2.10 (and earlier versions) were not throwing this error.

Can I can ignore it by NOT doing "make check"?

OR

is it something serious that if I ignore it can corrupt mailboxes?

Unfortunately for some reasons I can not update libc or valgrind.

This test was added in Dovecot version 2.2.14. It is also the only reference to
strspn() in the whole project.

I would say you can safely ignore it, but I can give no guarantee. I have no
access to a Fedora 16 system, so I can not verify
it, but I would say this is most likely a manifestation of the valgrind bug I
linked in my first email.

You could try verification yourself, by using the "Steps to Reproduce"
in the linked issue tracker.

Verified it. It is indeed valgrind bug.

Thanks for the help.
