Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Michael Nacey]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1 Thunderbird version 0.8 (20040913)

When trying to forward a multi-part HTML message that contains a table, TB locks
up, and must be killed with Task Manager. I have duplicated this error on
Windows and Linux with the attached message.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Select the attached message.
2.Click forward on the toolbar.
3.
Actual Results:  
Compose windows starts to display, but does not paint the message pane.
Application freezes and must be killed with Task Manager or Kill


Expected Results:  
Messages will not cause TB to freeze.

Mail server(s) are IMAP. Tested on both iMail(Windows) and IMAPUW(Linux and
FreeBSD), so it appears to be server independent.

The offending message was sent with Microsoft CDO (message attached). I have
also attached the TB debug log.

Also worthy of note: I cannot duplicate this problem with Mozilla Mail 1.7.3.

Attachment: Message that makes Thunderbird crash.

I observed the same problem when trying to forward the attached message.
Forwarding as text works, redirecting (using the Mail Redirect extension) works
both as HTML and as text. Forwarding as HTML crashes: Thunderbird draws the
compose window, but doesn't succeed in drawing the contents.

When I forward the message as an attachment instead of inline it does work, as
I expected.

Mail from Oracle produces same "result" (all of them, not only this one).
Using Thunderbird 1.0.2, 1.0.6 on Win2000 SP4, WinXP SP2
Mailserver is dbmail IMAP + MySQL on Suse Linux 9.1

Anybody still seeing this problem?  I can't reproduce it with the same messages provided here, using TB 1.5.0.9.
