Hello all,
Very randomly, after downloading (POP3) and reading some messages, if I
click the button to expunge deleted messages (and this has only
happened in the Inbox, but I have no idea if that matters) Balsa will
just disappear. I finally managed to get a launch icon capturing
stderr, and got
ERROR:../balsa-git/libbalsa/mailbox_mbox.c:280:message_info_from_msgno:
assertion failed: (msgno > 0 && msgno <= mbox->msgno_2_msg_info->len)
I haven't fully delved into the code, but I do assume the len is the
length of the array msgno_2_msg_info (not the length of some string, as
I first mis-assumed) which seems to be the number of messages in the
mailbox, so could something be happening out of order during the
expunge? This is an mbox mailbox.
I don't really see any G_MESSAGES_DEBUG values which would be
particularly useful. I suppose I could run under gdb and set a
breakpoint on that function - but this happens rarely enough that I'm
not sure it would be worth the effort. I suppose running under gdb
with no breakpoints would at least let me do a backtrace if I do catch
the crash again.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks.
Jack
