The most common reason for a page going blank like that some time after it
loads is that you are calling document.write() after the page is fully
loaded. document.write() can be used only during the page load. If you call
it after the document is "closed" (i.e. after the page is loaded), then
document.write() performs an implicit document.open(), which opens a *new*
document, erasing the current one.
In your imap.js file, there is a specialsTease() function which is called
asynchronously from the Ajax.updater() code in snagUpdates(). Inside
specialsTease() there is this code:
var gpoint = $$('tease');
GLog.write("HERE OK1c");
document.write (gpoint);
So it would appear that this document.write() is being called asynchronously
after the document is loaded. That would cause the symptoms you've observed.
Also, it looks like your gpoint variable is an array of DOM elements, not a
text string as document.write() expects. So even if it were called during
the page load it probably wouldn't do anything very useful.
