I don't think this bug is related directly to mail.  rcrespo: do you have the
same problem choosing edit|preferences from the browser window?

Update:  I was able to reproduce a crash using the mozilla-win32.zip build dated
1999111309m12 and a scenario that include what was stated in the original
scenario with one addition: clicking on the File menu item (while in the mail
window) after OK'ing the Preference dialog is where I crashed.  The crash was in
the same .dll (gkhtml.dll) reported above.
With this reproduced, I then ran the same test on the mozilla-win32.zip build
from today (1999113012m12) and I did not crash.   Based on this, I will verify
this bug, if the reporter is still seeing the crash please give us date that
shows up at the bottom of the browser page too.  Thanks.  Verified
