I think I fixed this in v2.0.10. Hmm. Yeah. I think http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/rev/079a81fb5117 fixed it.

Hi all,

Any thoughts about this error? Should I file a bug report somewhere?

Cheers, Chris.

Hi all,

I can send myself a test message that causes Dovecot to crash when I open it in Alpine, with the following error:

Jan 12 14:52:52 one-mail dovecot: imap(chris): Error: FETCH [1] for mailbox badbox UID 1 got too little data: 2 vs 4 Jan 12 14:52:52 one-mail dovecot: imap(chris): Error: Corrupted index cache file /home/chris/mail/.imap/badbox/dovecot.index.cache: Broken MIME parts for mail UID 1 Jan 12 14:52:52 one-mail dovecot: imap(chris): Disconnected: FETCH failed bytes=485/1394

I can do this as follows:

$ touch ~/mail/badbox $ echo test | /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -m badbox $ cat ~/mail/badbox

...

From MAILER-DAEMON Wed Jan 12 14:52:29 2011 test X-IMAPbase: 1294843949 0000000001 X-UID: 1 Status: X-Keywords: Content-Length: 1

And then when I try to open badbox in Alpine (over IMAP), and then open this email, I get the error above, and the connection is aborted.

I expect that the "test" line is not a valid header, but dovecot should not crash when opening it.

Cheers, Chris.
