The following was submitted as Debian bug #290701: ----- Forwarded message from Steve McIntyre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- Date: Sun, 16 Jan 2005 01:08:58 +0000 From: Steve McIntyre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Mutt *very* slow reading some mails Package: mutt Version: 1.5.6-20040907+2 Mutt stops responding to me when trying to open certain (spam) messages. I've attached a gzipped example. strace shows large numbers of mremap() calls going on, which suggests maybe lots of memory allocations. The mail has a *very* long line in the Bcc: header, which I'm guessing may be the cause. Of course, I don't want to actually read this mail, but mutt should be better behaved. After waiting a couple of minutes, I killed the mutt process and had a look at this mail using less instead. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
