parser=0x0 looks like the culprit.  Can you isolate whether a particular message is causing this, and whether it crashes consistently with that message?  Looks like it has a GIF89a image.

Comment 2 g11024342@trbvm.com 2009-02-08 13:02:19 UTC

Not a particular message but very often with HTML emails with embedded graphics. If I look at the same message again (after re-starting) it doesn't happen. Maybe just the first time?

Comment 3 Akhil Laddha 2009-02-08 13:39:09 UTC
