Thanks for the info.
According the mozilla website is "deja" supposted to archive these
newsgroups, but I haven't found them! (Perhaps they disappeared with the
'move' to google).

First, I'll try to get an additional IMAP-account first.
(Don't get me wrong, but as I am network admin at an ISP, I guess the
IT-security-people whould simply kill me if I would sent 'traces' with
my mail userid and password in it outside the company). ;-)
Is there somewhere some explanation on how exactly I am supposed to
'collect' these stack traces?

Yep, that's it.
I've been looking for a good mail-client on linux for some time now (I
do find 'pine' good for it's simplicity speed and ease-of-use; but it's
lacks some features I do want) and mozilla's mail-client seams to go a
long-way!
