Thanks for this info. Here we go then:

OK, AFAICS the error does *not* come from TB trying to send an email
that is being sent at the same time. When you send a message
(especially with an attachment), the whole thing is loaded into the
RAM (physical and virtual, but we won't go into this). TB apparently
has a number of sectors reserved for this.
If a new send/receive session starts while the old send session is
still in progress, the old session will still occupy the RAM sections
while the new session tries to access the same addresses => Access
Violation!
Before you write a bug report, please try putting this email with the
large attachment into the outbox, and check whether the access
violation also occurs when the message is being sent from there, and a
new session is started at the same time. I believe TB will not start a
new send session, even if scheduled, if one is already in progress. It
may (should) just add additional tasks to the send task lists (watch
the Connncetion Center at the same time, if possible).
BTW I recommend using the "put letter in outbox" icon all the time,
and if you want to send immediately, hit "send queued mail" right
after that. Reason: TB sends faster, especially messages with large
attachments. I haven't given it enough thought to tell you why, I have
only noticed this while using TB. ;-)
