  1. Use Version 91 or 93.
  2. click on a newsgroup
  3. View > Threads > Unread

Results:

  • Mac terminal shows "Exiting due to channel error."
  • Crash reporter
  • Crash reporter fails - "There was a problem submitting your report" - perhaps because of OOM?

This is reported by Windows user in Newsgroups: alt.comp.software.thunderbird Subject: Upgrade to 91.1.1 doesn't like my NNTP server

Flags: needinfo?(mkmelin+mozilla)

(Sancus fixed the crash reporting problem.)

There are several choices on the "View > Thread", "Unread" is the ONLY one which crashes. Earliest crash I found is version 88 buildid 20210412182002 bp-a60173f9-56bb-4d3d-a70d-c94100210418

nsMsgThreadedDBView::InitThreadedView bp-0dfdd86d-78a8-46f3-b7f3-83cfd0210926 my crash on Mac with 93 beta

Crash Signature: [@ nsMsgThreadedDBView::InitThreadedView ]
Version: Thunderbird 91 → Thunderbird 88
Assignee: nobody → mkmelin+mozilla
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Flags: needinfo?(mkmelin+mozilla)

But the WantsThisThread() call should basically fix it.
I can't reproduce the crash so there must some other factor playing in as well.

Ah, but that checks threadHdr not msgHdr.
