I think a null pointer check is missing in the vcard stuff. I got then when I
was trying to view a mail message with 5.0. Here is the trace:

I am using the 1/12 builds to verify this bug because the current build is not
good.
This problem no longer exists in these builds in POP/IMAP. Will re-open this bug
if it happens in the next builds.
