24151 - [DOGFOOD] IMAP mail load crashes Win98 machine

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 23969

(MailNews Core :: Networking, defect, P3)

Description

[David Hyatt]

In a build from Jan 16 (and also from Jan 15), I am unable to read my mail.  I
have tried this with a completely fresh build in which I deleted both my
registry and my Users50 directory.

I log in, enter my password, and I begin downloading my 752 messages.  About
halfway through, Mozilla hangs the entire machine.  Sometimes I can save it;
most of the time I can't.  MS-DOS usually ends up hosed to the point where it
can't be used, and I have to reboot.

Whatever's going on is not good.  I'm gonna try this on Tuesday to see if it
also occurs on my machine at work.
