Balsa 2.0.13 hanging on start up

["Tony Sequeira" <tony sequeira com>]

Hi,

I have just completed an LFS build, using mostly the latest software
available for the GUI.  I have installed the Development version of
GNOME, with versions available on the night of 30th June/early 1st
August.

Balsa works on on invocation for the first time.  Thereafter it hangs. 
If I trash the local GNOME directories (including ~/mail) and restart
it, it's OK again.  I'm not POPping anything, I leave that to
fetchmail.  I'm checking my local mailbox every minute (or would be if
it was working).  I have searched the web and the balsa
website/archives with no luck.  I found the problem with Redhat pspell
and applied it, but it does not help me.

Where should I start looking?  Any ideas?

Cheers
