Hi list, I've been investigating all morning a weird mailbox crash in roundcube.
Symptoms: a user contacts me because he/she can't open a folder in the webmail. The webmail hangs and finally crashes. On the server, I see a php5-cgi process using 99% of cpu. I use spawn-fcgi with nginx so killing the crazy process solves the issue, but it reappears if the user click on the folder again.
I had the problems twice already, and it's always caused by a weirdly formatted message. Today's message is here: http://pastebin.com/3kKRPvQR
It's difficult to track down, but I eventually figured out that the imap debug log would stop on the guilty message. Removing it, and reconstructing the mailbox (in cyrus-imap) fixes the issue.
I'm wondering if this issue is roundcube related, or a problem with php, the content encoding or maybe the weather (!). The system is running on Debian Squeeze with roundcube 0.5.2
I must add that the mailbox is still completely functional with thunderbird, which rules out the probability of a problem in cyrus-imapd (or, does it ?).
