Thanks. > Note that I don't use IMAP, so I will probably not be able to help... Essentially, if new mail arrives in an IMAP box while that box is open in Mahogany, a crash is very likely. This has been true for some time and remains true in the most recent Windows snapshot. In the past I reported this and provide links to the dmp files: http://www.american.edu/econ/problems/mdump.htm Hopefully that information is useful. Thanks for anything you can do! If I were to guess, I'd guess its a malloc problem: something has a different size than expected, and for some reason this is hit when M tries to update the folder view. Separately: The new crash reporting procedure is inconvenient. 1. M tries to send the report by email, but the email bounces. 2. Alternatively M stores the report on disk, but in contrast with the old practice of naming the .dmp file with the date and time the .dmp file is now put an a directory that is named by date and time. The .dmp file (and associated xml file) no longer have a unique name, and the files are much less convenient to upload this way. Please keep all the files in a single directory and give the files the date-time-stamped names!
