Dear users,
                 we have installed perdition-1.17.1 on AIX 5.3 (compiled with openldap and openssl support). when we start perdition with command shown below. we get a segmentation fault.

myhost:/tmp/perdition-1.17.1> ./perdition/perdition -PIMAP4 -f /usr/local/perdition/etc/perdition/perdition.conf
Segmentation fault

But it is able to server one IMAP sesion. After that session, daemon crashes with "segmenation fault".

If we start with the --no_daemon option the segmentation fault does not occur immediately but if we start an IMAP session after its closure perdition crashes.

our perdition.conf options are given below:

M /usr/local/perdition/lib/libperditiondb_ldap.so.0
m ldap://10.10.10.9:389/dc=dos?servername?sub?(mailacceptinggeneralid=%25s)

our logs given below :
