What makes you think it's a "memory leak"?

The backtrace (a crash in glibc memory management) looks very much like heap
corruption caused by an earlier interruption of the IMAP session, which has
been plagueing Claws Mail for a very long time (
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1070480#c5 ). As such, the backtrace is rather
useless because it doesn't tell what code had corrupted the memory prior to
calling malloc.
