Are you aware of an open bug?
(I'll open one, please dup if necessary.)

Not only is this a crasher, but it leaves the mailbox in
a corrupt state.

Could it be Seamonkey only? Or is Thunderbird also affected?

Might be related to Bug 1066998
Email compact folders skews titles from bodies in list, mismatch (crashes 
reported)
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1066998

Although my crash signature is different.

If you are not sure if your crash has the same origin as bug 1066998 then try the workaround for compacting folders as presented at the top of that bug page - if it works for you then most probably it's the same. I suspect there may be multiple crash signatures possible here.

It looks like the bug is too obscure/difficult for the developers to deal with at the moment. But reading from bug 1066998 this should be automatically fixed when Thunderbird 38 is released with the new cache system, which apparently is to blame for these crashes. This would translate to SeaMonkey 2.35.
