when starting mailnews, Mozilla eats up mem + CPU. I just waited a bit to see if
it would continue to start up, but then had to kill it when it had 100 MB RAM
allocated. *one time* I was able to read emails with this fresh installation of
1.2.1

hmmm, now it's working after my n-th try. It took 120 MB RAM, but then started
and released the memory, leaving itself 18 MB RAM. Perhaps this has to do with
the effect I see in 1.2.1 first? Every time a browser windows is closed, my
harddisk gets very busy for about one second.

Reporter, have you tried using a fresh build in the mean time? ;)
