Description Alexander Brüning 2020-11-22 17:06:01 UTC 
When performing an on-server search via IMAP client, Dovecot crashes instead.

Panic: file message-parser.c: line 174 (message_part_finish): assertion failed: (ctx->nested_parts_count > 0)

The problem is known to the developers and the Debian version has been patched:
