Re: Balsa crashes when receiving email

Me again...

It seems there's a clear lack of information in my previous post. It must
be something to do with my sleeping patterns being screwed up or I'm just
plain dumb. The odds are on the latter.

Anyway, here's gdb full dump, including the backtrace..

Also important is that this happens regardless to the balsa version I'm
using. I've reproduced it with both stock 1.2.3 and the latest cvs
checkout (1.3.0).

A final note. It happens when retrieving mail via POP and _only_ if
there's a email to be actually retrieved. If the server is empty, it won't
crash.

Sorry for the prior lack of info. Hope it helps now.
