I resized the mail window to the smallest possible size. ( this bug only occurs
in modern theme) After resizing the mail window to the smallest possible size
the mail client crashed (may be an endless loop??) Then I restarted mozilla and
the mail client. But the mail window will crash each time I reopend the mail
window. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Apply modern theme
2.open the mail window
3.normalise the mail window
4.resize the mail window to the smallest possible size
5.the mail window will crash

Actual Results:  1.restart mozilla
2.reopen the mail window
3.the mail window will crash(may be an endless loop in the mail window??)
4.it is no longer possible to resize the mail window to a normal size
5.NO LONGER POSSIBLE TO READ OR WRITE MAILS :-(
 

Expected Results:  reopen the mail window without crashing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

To solve this problem you can switch to classic theme. After switching to the
classic theme you can open the mail window without a crash. But how should a
normal user know this? It was just good luck to find out this work around.
