The first issue you mention is the same as I see. I'd bet you only get one duplicate message, not an entire set of messages that are duplicated. The second issue you mention likely has nothing to do with Tiger. Emailer has some known bugs when dealing with long file names in attachments, and spam is more and more commonly coming with attachments (gif attachments usually), and those on occasion are poorly created so they try to use the entire source image file path as the file name. Emailer would choke on that thinking the file name is longer than 31 characters. I'd also bet you leave messages on the mail server for a period of time. That would be why you need to delete the email via a web interface. Emailer will not consider a message received until it is successfully unpacked. Since it crashes before that can happen, it never updates its received list to include the bad message. When you check email again, it attempts to download that message again. If you don't leave messages on the server, Emailer deletes the message as soon as it is downloaded to its Temp Incoming folder. In that case, after Emailer crashes, and you remove the bad message from the Temp Incoming folder, the problem will be gone with no additional work on your part. >I also have a weirdo...
