Blowing away the preferences might work since IMP will fall back to a  
different sorting algorithm.  My guess is that a certain sort is  
causing c-client to segfault (c-client is notorious for segfaulting on  
certain headers with bad/wonky data) while the default sort is  
skipping the offending code in c-client.

If this is the case, this is a PHP issue, not a Horde issue.
