Thank you for reporting this issue.

The problem only happens in a very specific circumstance: there must be a
successful SELECT, followed by a failing SELECT (no such name) in the same
session, followed by a STATUS in the same session.

Although your patch makes the crash go away, the correct fix is to clear
lastsel in the case of a failing SELECT.  This fix will be in the release
version of imap-2002b.

I also suggest that your webmail program is probably doing something very
wrong if that scenario happens frequently.
