------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org 2001-08-09 02:59 ------- Unknown version 1.1.x in product balsa. Setting version to the default, "unspecified". The original reporter (jasonmc@cr806461-a.hnsn1.on.wave.home.com) of this bug does not have an account here. Reassigning to the exporter, unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org. Reassigning to the default owner of the component, pawsa@theochem.kth.se.
The stack trace in report is corrupted for some reason. Can you please go to Settings/Preferences/Display and switch OFF "Automatically view message when mailbox". Then open mailbox. It should succeed. Than, try to open first unread mail. Remember it (by subject, date, anything). It will most likely crash. If so, attach this message to this report. In any case, report what has happened.
Looks like a bug someone stumbled upon some time ago trigered by long lines and fixed buffers. Iirc the magic number was around 512.
Frankly, I though that it might be related to Unicode-incompatible way of breaking lines. One cannot tell the reason without seeing the message, anyway.
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 55175 ***
Balsa-1.2.4, and 1.3.1 released.
