Since I was trying to answer my own question, I actually came across two bug 
reports:

1)  The following AppleScript crashes LetterRip Pro 4.05b13:

tell application "LetterRip_Server" of machine "eppc://server.local"
    set theList to subscriber list named "Real list name"
    
    (* this line works fine *)
    set theSub to make new subscriber in theList with properties Â
       {name:"Jud Spencer", email address:"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"}

    (* this line crashes the server *)
    set theSub2 to first subscriber in theList whose name is "Jud Spencer"

    delete theSub2 in theList  --never gets this far    
end tell

I suspect that, as with creation, LetterRip is expecting some other syntax, but 
this one shouldn't make it go boom.

2)  LetterRip supports the Sophisticated Circuits Kick-Off/PowerKey timer 
protocol, where it sets a timer and refreshes it every minute or so.  If the 
timer counts down to zero, the Kick-Off or PowerKey hardware assumes the server 
has crashed, and restarts the server.

In finding the above crash, I noticed that relaunching LetterRip_Server did 
*not* remove the previous timer - it continued to count down, and when it 
reached zero, the server restarted, even though I had manually relaunched 
LetterRip_Server and it was serving and responding just fine.
