User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

When attempting to select the main POP3 Account headers in the left mail window
there is a complete crash.  Only CTRL-ALT-DEL will allow an escape if the
program is closed ("End Task").  All other folders are accessible, such as,
Inbox, Templates, etc., etc. among each account.  So long as the main, header
for the POP3 account is not clicked.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Open email 
2.  Click on POP3 main header
3.  Hangs

Actual Results:  
Everything stops.  The program is not responsive at all.  No other browser
windows can be selected.  No further action can be taken within the Mail/News
window.

Expected Results:  
Prior to this error, the options page was displayed for the email account which
has hyperlinks to the account's settings and other tasks.

What you describe sounds more like a hang than a crash.

FYI - I removed a newsgroup account that had been setup and the system returned
to normal.  The mailnews window now has no newsgroup accounts and seems to
function properly.  Hopefully, this makes sense to someone.
