When replying to a message and within typing the first two lines of message
text, program crashes with invalid page fault in MSVCRT.DLL.  Also occurs with
new message composition, but only if addressee and subject lines are entered
first.  Have always been able to compose successfully if I wait till the end to
add addressee/subject. 

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Reply to an email (or compose new email and add addressee/subject line)
2. Start typing
Actual Results:  
Crashes with invalid page fault, usually on first or sometimes second line.

Expected Results:  
Not crash :-)

MOZILLA caused an invalid page fault in module MSVCRT.DLL at 013f:7800d16a.
(rest will be attached) Had no problems with Mozilla 1.5.x, started immediately
after loading Mozilla 1.6 and NO problems with prior versions.  Problem is
independent of the number of addressees, typically occurs only when it's the
first thing I do after booting/starting mozilla, and before browsing.
This is probably bug 239749
Please try with a recent 1.7 nightly:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/nightly/latest-1.7/mozilla-win32-installer.exe

And if you have steps to reproduce post them to bug 239749, thanks !
Sorry I somehow missed the earlier bug :-(
