I've run dovecot and dovecot2 for 15+ years and I've never seen that one before. Could this user have a massively corrupt mail store or could there be a permission problem on the user inbox?
No, because after restart service I could access that mail boxes just fine. An assertion in C code means that the code reached a point that the programmer thought it would never do, but it did. And aborts, handling that situation is not designed into the program. The message should tell the programmer where and why, but... Basically it means that it is a signal for the programmer to redo the code.
and could this be a side-effect of your spamd ipv4 listening issue?
Seems unrelated. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" (Minas Tirith))
