Package: courier-imap
Version: 3.0.8-3
Severity: important
If the IDLE command is used and you connect with Thunderbird (German 1.0)
having IDLE support enabled you get these error messages at each login:
Feb 6 19:36:11 mail imaplogin: malloc: Input/output error
Feb 6 19:36:13 mail imaplogin: LOGOUT, user=whatever,
ip=[::ffff:212.221.107.132], headers=0, body=0, time=3
Feb 6 19:36:13 mail imaplogin: LOGOUT, user=whatever,
ip=[::ffff:212.221.107.132], headers=273, body=1922, time=41
If you use SSL the message looks like this:
Feb 6 19:36:13 mail imapd-ssl: malloc: Input/output error
It seems this problem has been there for a while, as there is also an italian
report on http://lists.debian.org/debian-italian/2004/11/msg00729.html
I did not experience any data loss yet, but removed the IDLE capability just to
be sure for now.
Best regards,
Frederik

current unstable), feel free to reopen the bug.
