Package: mailutils
Version: 1:0.6.94-1
Severity: important
i can reliably make GNU mailutils segfault when reading mail from a
simple mbox. It probably segfaults in many more circumstances, but this is
make an mbox with a single message in it, and view it with
/usr/bin/mail.
at the first prompt, type "cd x" and hit tab. you will get a
segmentation fault:
[0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] tmp.UoUsZ25790]$ cat >example <<EOF

>N 1 Daniel Kahn Gillmo Fri Jul 21 09:35 7/214 example simple mbox

I have not had a chance to debug this further yet, but will happily
provide more information if it would help resolve the problem.
