[imp] SegmFault with IMP & QPOP

Quoting giomau@mate.polimi.it:

Are you using 4.0.0?  If so, upgrade to 4.0.4 and see if the problem
goes away.  Also, try upgrading to an uptodate version of c-client.

As long as QPOP is stable for you, and obeys the RFCs, it really
doesn't matter... the problem lies with your PHP/c-client setup
somewhere.

What you want to do is read this:
http://www.horde.org/faq/admin/trouble/index.php#t33

and make the relevant bug entry in the PHP database.

Do make sure you try upgrading software versions before this
though, and see if the problem goes away.

This is pretty well advised anyway, simply because of the 
feature improvements you gain (per-message flags, hugely better
MIME and attachment handling, etc)

That could indeed prove to be a problem!
