I'm posting this again because I've run out of ideas to try and maybe
someone out there has something new to suggest. It's hard for me to
believe that I'm the only one experiencing this given that my system is
pretty vanilla. I'm running SM 2.39 with no add-ons or extensions except
those that came with the SM version, on a Win 8.1 Pro system. My email
is a POP account with Earthlink. When I forward an email sometimes, but
not always, SeaMonkey locks up the system for about 90 seconds and I
cannot do anything but tell Windows to close SeaMonkey to get control
again unless I wait for those 90 seconds. During the lock-up I see a
small status window that says " Status: Mail sent successfully" and
which contains a green status bar that varies from 100% down to about
50%. The tiny blue arrow in the list of emails that indicates I've
forwarded this one is not posted until after the system becomes unfrozen
and the status window goes away. Forwarding inline or as an attachment
makes no difference and forwarding in plain text vice html also makes no
difference. I've tried running in "Safe" mode, and I've tried creating a
new profile and running under it to no avail. Very annoying. The problem
does not occur when I forward an email using Gmail. Should I post this
in Bugzilla?

Dick, I see that Jonathan has experienced similarities with you and
Earthlink. I'm different!
I dual boot this HP laptop with Win7 and Mageia Linux, but have been
unable to get the Linux to connect to the Internet for the last few
months (since installing MGA 5), so have been using Win7 daily., and,
(several times per session) whilst I doing something (downloading
e-mails, opening a new web page, posting a response to a news group,
whatever) my screen will just glaze over and I'm not allowed to do
anything until the computer finishes doing whatever it is doing.
I've just figured that I might be getting close to maximum RAM usage
(4GB) and Windows is just doing some sort of rubbish run. Maybe, maybe
not, but gives me some time to think about what I'm doing!! ;-)
