Using my webmail system, I believe I isolated the offending email. It appears to be a spoof (fake) email from PayPal customer support. The subject line begain with an exclamation point and said something like "!To all PayPal customers..."
This is the second apparently fake PayPal email I have received this week. They show the paypal.com domain and use PayPal logos but the language is very suspect as is the fact that this one was crashing E-rage repeatedly.
I deleted it via webmail and everythig appears to be working correctly now.

I’m gratified to learn that not only did the technique work, but you were able to identify the offending email. I don’t know if these evil messages crash Entourage simply by downloading or in the spam filter, but they sure are annoying. It is a bit worrisome to find one’s entire email capability threatened by a spammer. Some of us depend on email for our livelihoods. Fortunately, this email is not a typical spam but appears to be a scam; as such, it should be less frequent than the usual garbage we receive.
Thanks for sharing your good results with the list.
