User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7

After this long email in fetched from the IMAP server, I scroll in it and
Thunderbird will randomly crash when I am scrolling. It happens every time I
open this message containing 2 attachments. I can't say more as I have no idea
what could be the cause.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the email (I don't know if the fact that it comes from IMAP is important)
2. Scroll in it


Actual Results:  
Thunderbird crashes

Expected Results:  
;)

I cannot attach the email as it weights 770k. I can send it on demand.

Attachment: An example email

This is not the original email which cause Thunderbird to crash. But this one
will crash Thunderbird with the same symptoms.

Marecandja, please attach a stack trace generated by this crash. Does it also
happen using Mozilla?

(Possibly related to bug 202847?)

I don't get any stack trace, core file, error message, nada! Just Thunderbird
closing itself very quickly when I scroll in the email (attached BTW)...

i've got a similar problem, but with Mozilla MailNews nightly build #2004050509: 
open a new "compose mail" window, write 4 or more To:/Cc: fields, each on its
row, so a scrollbar appears; if i try to scroll, mozilla crashes; 
first time, a talkback was created but I didnt write down the id; can I still
find it somehow? i gave my email address when submitting,
[e-mail].
now, the talkback doesnt start anymore..

I guess this was Bug 243203, this is now fixed, try builds after 05-15.
