User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_7_1) AppleWebKit/534.48.3 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.1 Safari/534.48.3

Steps to reproduce:

My connection is very slow, I happen to take a few minutes to send a 5-8 MB attach, for instance. During this time, Thunderbird is very likely to crash if I do anything else which implies putting the sending window in background: opening a message, reading it, replying... It happens several times a day.


Actual results:

5-10 crashes a day during this operation.


Expected results:

No crash is expected.
Can you provide some crash IDs (see http://support.mozillamessaging.com/bg/kb/Mozilla-Crash-Reporter) ?

I can't send you a log. Thunderbird freezes, with the Mac Os spinning ball displayed, the task doesn't take any CPU but it's endless. I need to restart Windows. Note that I can reproduce 50% of the times with a 14 MB attach, for instance. I used a fast connection which takes one minute or so: sometimes it's sent, sometimes the upload is finished and TB is frozen forever.
Sorry, I meant to restart Windows. I'm experiencing *lots* of crashes on three different machines, and I'm never able to report the bug, I just have the option from Apple to send them the details. Please let me know how I can send you more info.
copy what you can send to apple and save as a file and attach it here.

Does preparing permissions on your mac using disk utility helps ?

Does starting Thunderbird in safe-mode also helps (see http://support.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/kb/Safe-Mode ) ?

Sorry for taking so long but we didn't experience any crashes, until today.
you you using a mozilla supplied build of Thunderbird?  If not please get one and try again.

unfortunately, the stack you provided does not have thunderbird symbols, so it is not useful to us.

Yes I'm using the 7.0 got from your website. I'll try and send another log if it crashes again.
bozzunter, still needing more info

Hi,

the bug is still present on 9.0.1 I'm using, but I can't send you any report since the spinning ball simply keeps running endlessly. I moved from 7.0 to 8.0 and to 9.0, so I can't send you any report from 7.0 but I'll be more than happy to assist you with this bug.

Are all these Macs on the same model network switch?  What model?

Nope, different houses/offices/countries. If you refer to the router, we're using DLink and Motorola.
disable copying/saving of sent message

and then please attach protocol log for smtp:5
