Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Mikel Ward]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

A message I received today causes Mozilla Thunderbird to crash when clicking on
its entry in the message list, which in turn causes an automatic preview to
appear in the preview pane.  Presumably there is something in the HTML in this
message that the HTML engine can't handle.

I extracted this message into a separate folder on my IMAP server to confirm it
is the loading/rendering of this message that causes the crash.

I still can't attach files to a bug report at this point, so I will attach it next.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Attachment: Mail that crashes Thunderbird when viewed

Comment 2

Michael Wardle: Could you provide Talkback incident ID of this crash? Could you
reproduce crash with Thunderbird 1.0 or actual nightly build?

Comment 3

The only remnant of this mail is attached to this bug.

After recreating an IMAP mail folder from the attached message, subscribing to
that folder and viewing the message, I can't get Thunderbird 1.0 to crash.
