Opening an attached MS Word file from a mail window by double-clicking on the

Office 97 format.

Crashes occur with messages stored in local folders and on remote (online) IMAP
folders

This is probably bug 99057.  Please try using a talkback build and attaching the 
talkback ID here?

Iwan van der Kleyn, are you still seeing this problem?

[Keyser Sose]

Marking these all WORKSFORME sorry about lack of response but were very
overloaded here. Only reopen the bug if you can reproduce with the following steps:

1) Download the latest nightly (or 0.9.6 which should be out RSN)
2) Create a new profile
3) test the bug again

If it still occurs go ahead and reopen the bug. Again sorry about no response
were quite overloaded here and understaffed.
