Hello Ian,

I had no problem accessing that link from my browser. Actually I was 
redirected to this:

http://www.nortonrose.com/au/knowledge/publications/66052

I have no idea why the CC hungs when trying 'render' that link, maybe
because it doesn't point to an image that has to be downloaded and
rendered, but to a 'redirection' to a web page as I pointed above.

Anyway, TB (the CC) should not be trying to access that link unless you
have previously 'Allowed' it in the URL Manager. Any link that has not
been allowed (or Blocked) should show in the 'Unresolved' tab of URL
Manager, but not trying to access it until the user allows it. So, I
would suggest you open URL Manager and see if the site
(http://www.nortonrose.com) appears in the Allowed tab and remove it.
You may open URL Manager when any HTML message is being displayed.

Define 'latest'. I have not used any of the v5.0.x beta series but about
two weeks ago I upgraded from v4.2.44.2 to v5.1 (now 5.1.2 as you can
see in my signature) and I have not seen any sign of instability at all. 
I'm not using IMAP, though.

> Can anything be done to overcome this hanging?

Once you have removed the site from the Allowed ones, include it in the 
Blocked ones.
