I'll attach the message and the crash.

Attached file 1544187-crash.txt

This is the crash. It crashes on Trunk, not Beta 67, when this message is viewed in an IMAP folder that is not marked for synchronisation, like this arrived in the SPAM.

Attached file jorgk.eml

This is the message. Nothing special, only an attachment of type application/octet-stream which has a PDF file extension but in reality is a PNG.

That makes me think that we regressed this with bug 1418444, but that got uplifted to TB 67 beta.

Alice, can you find the regression here please. Please use an IMAP folder that isn't synchronised for offline use, so in Properties > Synchronisation, switch off "select for offline use".

Wayne, have we seen this crash in the wild? Gene, can you please also take a look.

I cannot reproduce the crash on Latest Daily.

Start Tb with new profile
Create a gMail imap
Right click on Inbox folder
Select Properties > Synchronization, switch off "select for offline use".
Drag drop the e-mail into Inbox
Double click the e-mail in thread pane

-- nocrash, There is broken image icon, and an attachment pdf file

Thanks for trying. In general, using Gmail is not ideal. It would be better to use a folder other than inbox. The sync setting doesn't take effect immediately, in my experience you need to repair the folder to get rid of locally stored copies.

All that said, I moved the message to a different IMAP folder and it doesn't crash there. Then I compacted the folder where it crashed originally, and the crash went away. Very strange, but nothing we can do.
