Package: mutt
Version: 1.5.6-20040907+2
Followup-For: Bug #262272

Hi,

I also get segfaults from mutt several times a day. It always seems to
happen just after mutt displays a message "Sorting mailbox". This also
happens when I don't do anything. Mutt is running, I go to sleep and
next morning mutt has segfaulted. And no signs of fairies or grues. ;)
It only happens when I am in an IMAP folder.

I saved 23 core dumps of about 1.5 MB each. I don't have experience
analyzing them, but they are available in case anyone would want to
have a look. With some pointers I may be able to analyze it myself.

Yesterday I tried "set strict_threads=yes" like was proposed earlier
in the thread as a workaround. Since then I haven't seen a
segfault. That post mentions that there may be unbearable side
effects, but I haven't noticed. So for now I am fine, thanks for the
tip.
