Hello,

There is a known segfault in mail/dovecot2-pigeonhole released with
Dovecot 2.1.8 which is what we have in ports at the moment.

The segfault makes it very near impossible to edit sieve scripts with a
managesieve client which does syntax validation (like the Thunderbird
plugin does). The problem has been fixed in Dovecot 2.1.9 which is not
yet in ports. However, if you are impatient to get this solved, you can
drop the following patch in /usr/ports/mail/dovecot2-pigeonhole/files
and rebuild dovecot2-pidgeonhole and restart dovecot, and the
problem is gone (for me at least):

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The patch is unchange from the upstream patch except for paths:
http://hg.rename-it.nl/dovecot-2.1-pigeonhole/raw-diff/6ceeb6421231/src/lib-sievestorage/sieve-storage-save.c

I'd prepare a proper port patch but I expect Dovecot in ports to be
updated to 2.1.9 soon-ish, so this is just a temporary solution :)



Hope this can help someone,

Best regards,

Thomas Steen Rasmussen
