Hi, Roland. First, you need to upgrade, because 1.2.4 and 1.2.5 were bad releases. 1.2.6, 1.2.7final and 1.2.8final are all stable. I recommend the latest version. It's safe to just compile the new server and copy the binaries (bincimap-up and bincimapd) over the old ones. Then, try to catch the crash (it is a crash) with gdb, by attaching to bincimapd before the FETCH command is submitted, or by tracing the bincimapd process with strace. You'll find a link to ProtocolDumping on the http://www.lifewithbincimap.org/ site that will help you provide some more info.
