This bug description is pretty vague, please send us a core file and a
backtrace or at least a procedure to reproduce it all the time (can you create
the mailbox on the fly so that you don't have to send us your private mailbox?)

I can certanly say that it's not reproducible on my box but I'm not sure what is
causing the crash and it might be a corrupted mailbox (even if we should not
crash anyway).

Is it still reproducible with 1.6.2-3?
