 Sorry about it. I do know that such things happen but unfortunately I
don't usually have the resources to fix the bugs which don't occut on the
machines I use -- which seems to be your case.

 Is there any chance that you upgrade to something better, e.g. anything
from the NT line (including even XP <shrug>)?

 Sorry, this is not very helpful. If it failed, it must have told you why
and you should save the log window contents and send it to me when it
happens.

 The messages are all the more cryptic if I don't know what they are.
Please show them. Don't forget to enable the "debug mail" option on the
last page of the preferences dialog to see what's going on the wire as
well.

 No, it shouldn't.

 Which one, when, where?

 This is pretty bad. Does it really crash opening _any_ folder?

 Thanks,
