    Oh yeah, a copy of your imapd.conf and whether you apply any patches
    would be nice to know too. Handy for reconstructing the problem!
    I apply two patches to skiplists on 2.3.12 (yeah, I know, after all
    the stuff I've had pushed upstream too):

    hmm... and I realise I haven't updated the website for a while.
    Doing that now... ok:

    http://cyrus.brong.fastmail.fm/patches/cyrus-skiplist-safeunlock-2.3.12.diff
    http://cyrus.brong.fastmail.fm/patches/cyrus-skiplist-readlocktracking-2.3.12.diff

    I'd be interested to know if the issue still exists with these.
    They tidy up the logic for locks even more. I needed it to make
    the fast_rename and folder_limit stuff work again.
