Hm, could you please say which po file this was? I need to restruct
 this crash with the exact facts -- I do also get a crash but a 
  completely different backtrace, so this shouldn't be the cause for
   your crash .-)

Comment 2 Fatih Demir 2002-01-19 20:33:14 UTC

It has got to do with this menu logic -- we should change it really to
be more usable.

Also nice: a more logical coordination with the message states and the
mvoe of sticky state -> edit menu (copy msgid) idea...

Comment 3 Fatih Demir 2002-02-15 13:16:15 UTC

Hurray, fixed this bug -- it was a GTR_FREE() call too much.. But
that's not important for you I guess :-)

It's not crashing anymore...
