sometimes I get emails which crash Balsa on my machine (Gentoo Linux

Ouch – bad news! Are these crashes reproducible, i.e. is there any
message which does *always* trigger the crash? Did you try to run
balsa in gdb, and did the crash produce a usable backtrace (enter “bt
full” in gdb)?
If you need some example emails I'd like to supply these - please
tell where I should
upload these since they are too large to be appended here.
Samples which trigger the crashes would be extremely helpful!
Probably the easiest way: create a new mbox mailbox, copy some of the
offending messages to it, and then gzip the file and send it to my
private address. As I can test on Debian and Ubuntu only, maybe
Peter is also interested in it?
*Please remember to remove sensitive private information from the
mbox file before submitting it!*
Could you also include the configure command line, e.g by calling
“head -10 /path/to/balsa/git/folder/config.log”?
Thanks in advance,
Albrecht.
I remember having such crashes a long time ago. I'm pretty sure every
message that cause a crash for me was horribly invalid HTML, and I have
a vague memory of it being related to which HTML render engine was
being used. Of course trying to get the sender (generally large
organizations, either stores or non-profits) was an absolute waste of
time. Note I'm also on Gentoo, but compiling from git head with
meson/ninja. config.log appears to be left over from a very old build
in the src dir, so it doesn't appear useful. I do have a config.h from
the build dir, let me know if it would be useful as a comparison.
