Bug 711deals with an entirely different issue. And I stillbelieve that PHP is partially responsible for the strange behavior in
that bug (i.e. PHP would randomly segfault given the same input) -
although, admittedly, there were some issues with our code.
2. Most likely, there is a message in the INBOX with some kind of
quirky header that is crashing c-client. This has come up numerous
times in the past and, as Chuck correctly points out, the solution is
to upgrade c-client and recompile. If this doesn't work, you should
track down what specific message is causing the problem and then
inform the c-client people (or possibly the PHP c-client people) so
that they can fix it.

bug 711seems to suggest that Horde sometimes isn't that innocent.- I've used the CVS IMP code for months without any problems. Then I
did a cvs update and "bang". I didn't change *anything* else. Neither
Apache nor PHP. Or anything else on the system but the Horde PHP code
itself.
Of course, it's not directly PHP code that segfaults since that's
technically impossible but it seems some changed Horde code is
*triggering* something in PHP. You can say "Not my (seg)fault." but I
can imagine more constructive approaches...

Interestingly, the number of mails in the inbox and its sub-folders
are displayed correctly. The segfault only happens when trying to open
it.
