 Hello,

 I assume this means that you've built it yourself from sources, so could
you please try doing the following:

1. ensure that you have exactly one set of wxWindows headers and libs on
   your system, i.e. that you don't have any headers from the previous
   versions and that the library which Mahogany is linked against was
   really compiled using them (i.e., although it sounds stupid, it has
   already happened that such problems resulted simply from a missing
   make install...)

2. check that you don't have old Mahogany modules lying around somewhere
   where it picks them before the new ones.

3. after checking the points above, please try rebuilding both wxWindows
   and Mahogany in debug mode (--enable-debug for wxWindows, --with-debug
   for Mahogany) and run it under gdb - then, when it crashes, please do
   "bt" and send the output here.

 This could be either a real bug - e.g. there is a message in your INBOX
which is so malformed that it causes Mahogany to crash - or a build
misconfiguration problem. Unfortunately the experience shows that in 90% of
the cases it is the latter but it is very difficult for me to fix it from
here as it's usually due to something really stupid but/and difficult to
find...

 Configuring everything as static (i.e. --with-modules=static and "make
quartstatic" instead - or, if you don't have anything against really huge
programs, "make semistatic" or even "make static") might help.

 No, it's unrelated. Please just build without Python support for now, it's
useless in its current form anyhow.

 Good luck!
