** Observed with 12/16/99 Win32 build **

I have seen this bug several times now in the last 2 days but now I can
reproduce this bug every time by following the steps below.

Basically, Mozilla crashes when you try to view a newly received
message under certain conditions. You need to follow the steps
carefully -- there may be other ways to reproduce this bug but
this is one sure way I know.

1. If you are already up, quit Mozilla and re-start.
2. Now start Mozilla and start Messenger.
3. Select an IMAP server. (Don't know if this is true with POP yet.)
4. Now select the last message in Inbox to display and see
   that it is loaded and displayed.
5. Now bring up a new mail Compose window.
6. Just compose any msg you want -- I use one line msg.
7. Then send it out to the very account you're now reading mail in.
8. Receive this msg by clicking on "Get Msg"
9. Now select this newly arrived msh to view.  This is when it crashes
   without fail if you follow these steps.

By the way after this crash if you re-start Messenger and go back to
the same message to display, the crash will not occur. This crash has to do
with dealing a newly arrived msg while you're viewing an exiting msg.

I have several Talkback dumps but they all look the same. Here's
one of them:

===================================
Summary: A crash occurs when you select a newly received msg to display → [Dogfood] A crash occurs when you select a newly received msg to display
Because this is a serious bug, I'm going to mark it [Dogfood].
We should try to fix this crash for M12 if at all possible.
Same as 22001, I believe.

This should be a duplicate of Bug 22001. So I'll mark it as
such. The steps I described above induce the crash all the time
and consistently. So you might want to follow these in reproducing the
bug. For me this is not a random crash.
