that's it!, the right hand side of the magic entry was "NULL" (ie, the
right hand column had no data..) as soon as I put in "whatever" it
worked. Mail for _existing_ users _did_ work properly though. The
question now is why was it a signal 11 error? Is it a bug in qmgr or the
mysql map type? What we do know is that it is present in all versions from
19990906 till present. Thank you very much Wietse.
