[Volker Sauer]

Package: cyrus21-imapd
Version: 2.1.18-5.1
Followup-For: Bug #358742

Client: Apple Mail (Mail.app)
Sending (big?) attachments causes imapd to hang and lock the Sent
folder. No mail is stored to sent anymore.

Apple Mail says in the log:

2007-11-05 08:28:02.277 Mail[325] **** Failed to append to Sent
2007-11-05 08:55:35.371 Mail[325] Error (null) occurred while trying to
