This doesn't happen for me in 1.1b and I don't think it happened in earlier
versions.  Anyone else seeing this?

Also can't see the error1.jpg, Raj.  It might help with clues about your
configuration.  You can put it as an attachment to this bug if you want.

I was able to fix it by deleting a message file in the mail directory. It seems
Mozilla recognised the file however could not display it. In regad to the
error1.jpg I have taken it down. If you want me up it again I can.

I get this problem with the sent mail folder.  I reported it as bug 143324,
which may be a duplicate of yet another bug, but nobody can find it :)  I'm
amazed to see my own name saying this doesn't happen, when something so
blindingly similar does happen for me!

It still happens, right up to the latest nightly build.  Strangely enough, I now
have some mail accounts which are correct, so your idea of a spurious mail file
might be the answer.
