Phil, rhp - do you know who this bug would belong to?  No one is around for us
to bug so we assigned to rhp for now :-)

Leaf thinks this may have to do w/ some evaughan changes, but he is not
positive.

I knew that mozilla build with this problem for IMAP account (see bug#15968),

And, I tried for 10-11-08-M11 yesterday commercial build without reading msgs
problem but only expand/collapse folders problem (see bug#16105)

[(not reading, please use [e-mail] instead)]

I'm rebuilding on linux now, so I can investigate.

Comment 9

[Karen Huang]

Oh! Sorry about that, theose are different problem! This bug not described
"crash"...

I tried on today's Mozilla build on Linux for IMAP account:
Yes!! I cannot see the message dispalyed on the message body.
It only displayed headers on thread pane.

[Scott MacGregor]

It's probably me as I landed a new nsIModule for mime last night.

Comment 11

[Scott MacGregor]

Although I'm pessimistic to blame myself since I *know* those changes worked on
all three platforms last night. But it is the most likely culprit.

Comment 12

[Scott MacGregor]

Re-assigning to me for further investigation.

I've verified that it wasn't any of my changes from last night. We are properly
writing the same old XUL/HTML that we have always written into the parser. The
parser isn't laying out the document. This points to a layer underneath
mailnews. Someone mentioned evaughn as a possible candidate (leaf?). I'll look
into it.

[Simon Fraser [no longer active]]

You might also want to be suspicious of my nsFileSpec changes

Comment 14

[Scott MacGregor]

Simon, I didn't see any file spec changes in the check in log. Just the buffer
size change for the file worker thread. Did the file spec changes go in the day
before?

problem.

marking as fixed.
