I have created several news accounts that use the same news server, but use
different identities.
Example:
Account 1: server: news.a.edu, username John Doe, email [e-mail]
Account 2: server: news.a.edu, username Jane Doe, email [e-mail]
I can access subscribed newsgroups in the account created last only (account 2.)
I can subscribe to newsgroups and list subscribed newsgroups in account 1, but
as soon as I click on a message, Mozilla crashes.
This is with Mozilla 1.5b (Build ID 2003082704), but I have experienced this
from at least 1.4 on.

I recently installed 1.5rc1, and I don't see the crash anymore in this version.
