From: David Wilson <dave@thing.com> To: submit@bugs.gnome.org X-Mailer: bug-buddy 2.2.0 Subject: Balsa crashes on certain emails Package: balsa Severity: major Version: 2.0.8 Synopsis: Balsa crashes on certain emails Bugzilla-Product: balsa Bugzilla-Component: general BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.0.3) Description: Description of Problem: If the preview window is enabled when certain emails are opened, balsa crashes with a segmentation fault. If the preview window is disabled, then balsa crashes if the "problem" email is opened for viewing. This occurs whenever balsa attempts to view or preview a "problem" email message. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Enable preview window 2. Select the "problem" email message 3. Balsa crashes Actual Results: Expected Results: How often does this happen? Every time a problem email is previewed. Additional Information: If preview is disabled, balsa is able to perform other operations on the "problem" email: move to another folder, delete the message. However, balsa will crash if you double-click on the "problem" email message. Attached is an actual email message(in mbox format) that caused balsa to crash. Debugging Information: Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/balsa' (no debugging symbols found)...[New Thread 8192 (LWP 6179)] [New Thread 16385 (LWP 6182)] 0x420ae169 in wait4 () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6
