This problem is probably specific to Opensuse 11.2 Evergreen. The
current level is seamonkey-2.6.1-1.1.i586, but I have had this problem
for a while - older levels were definitely affected.
I have 3 systems running 11.2 Evergreen. Two are 32-bit systems and the
third is running the 64-bit version. All three have the same problem.
When I want to send a mail I have prepared, Seamonkey dies immediately.
The Browser window(s), Mail window, all gone. Restarting reopens my
browser sessions but the version of the mail in "Drafts" is a few
minutes old.
The only error messages I see are the two lines below:
seamonkey-bin: misc.c:39: px_malloc0: Assertion `mem != ((void *)0)' failed.
/usr/bin/seamonkey: line 127: 4213 Aborted $MOZ_PROGRAM
"$@"
Looks to be similar to this from Oct 2011:

My suspicion is th
at Seamonkey is depending on some feature of glibc (or
similar) which my older version does not provide.
glibc-2.10.1-10.11.1.i586
Obviously the level information is for one of the 32-bit systems. All
three systems are kept "up to date". I'm just guessing as to the cause,
could someone who understands this stuff say more?
Have you checked your distro bug reports for the same/similar issue? I'm
not familiar with openSUSE (I use Ubuntu/Debian/Fedora), but it looks as
if your distro 11.2 has moved along to 2.8:
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Evergreen_11.2
List of updates for 11.2 from Evergreen
These are the updates for openSUSE 11.2 made by the Evergreen project.
The list is sorted with latest updates first.
[seamonkey released Bug #750044 see changelog ver. 2.8]
- https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=750044
That would also indicate to me that they provide all of the necessary
packages/libs to run SeaMonkey 2.8. Perhaps you can/should upgrade?
I have been keeping "up to date" using the 11.2 Evergreen Repo. I just
checked on one of the Evergreen machines and the newest level available
there is the one I have installed. Yes, I now see that the Opensuse
Evergreen link says 2.8 is available but neither of the standard update
tools (zypper and YaST) agree. Nor does
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Evergreen:/11.2/standard/ia64/
- no Seamonkey at all, the i586 branch just shows the old level.
Although the abort I get is the same as in your October 2011 link, the
circumstances are different. The one you pointed me at was an abort as
soon as Mail was clicked / loaded. In my case I can read mails/news
with no problems at all, I discovered yesterday that I can write to this
Newsgroup (the only one I ever write to). My abort comes when I click
to send a mail.
Looks like I need to submit a bug report against 11.2 Evergreen, at
least for the missing products.
Thank you for filling in some gaps - I was looking in the wrong place.
