Build ID: 1999110308 (Mozilla build) Platform: Windows 98 (Linux does not crash using the 1999110309 commercial build) To reproduce: - Launch the browser - Select Tasks | Mail Result: You crash. Expected result: You don't. Dr Watson log is forthcoming. (Talkback is not enabled in this build.) MOZILLA caused an invalid page fault in module XPCOM.DLL at 015f:60b36cc6. Registers: EAX=00000000 CS=015f EIP=60b36cc6 EFLGS=00010246 EBX=60b2c3e2 SS=0167 ESP=0063e8f4 EBP=0063e960 ECX=0063e940 DS=0167 ESI=00000000 FS=4417 EDX=00000000 ES=0167 EDI=80000000 GS=0000 Bytes at CS:EIP: 80 3e 00 0f 84 a1 00 00 00 8a 0a 80 f9 25 74 09 Stack dump: 60b2c43f 60b36cb7 00000000 60a335d7 00000000 00000000 007c2e50 80000000 0657f770 60605760 0063ea10 0657f770 60a33440 60b44998 064c20b0 00000001
Typing 'mozilla.exe -mail' also crashes. This prevents anyone from testing mail. Dr Watson log is at http://schist/17890.txt

This happens on all platforms if you try to access mail with a migrated profile. If you create a profile from scratch, it shouldn't crash the browser.

I'll bet that the fix to #17882 fixed this bug. To workaround it, add a username to all your newsservers (it doesn't matter what the username is, just that it is set)

Target Milestone: M11
Putting on M11 radar.
Verified on Linux 11-04-08-M11. It's working OK now...
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
This is okay for most of us with commercial builds nov9. I'm going to mark this one verified. There is a more recent "crash on launching mail" bug with nov10 builds which will supercede this one as the newer blocker . See bug #18464.
Linux (1999-11-09-11 M11) commercial Win32 (1999-11-09-11 M11) commercial Mac (1999-11-09-11 M11) This bug no longer exists.
