Outlook 2003 still crashing

We have the same setup with cyrus 2.2.12 w/ IMAP IDLE and Outlook 2003 SP2.

We never had Outlook crashing (well, not more than normal with outlook
*g*), neither with nor without any Outlook SP.

I don't think that this is cyrus or IDLE related.
But I don't have any clue, to be honest...

Best,
Daniel
