292042 - Crash when trying to send email with enigmail installed

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(MailNews Core :: Networking, defect)

Description

[Sander]

TB5388368H - mozilla 2005042606. Enigmail installed, but crash occurs regardless
of if this is active for the account with which the email is sent or not.

Steps to reproduce: open mozilla, open mailnews, compose, fill in recipient,
subject, content, hit ctrl-enter: crash (at the point where mozilla would
usually ask for the master password, although it happens when master password is
currently remembered as well, which is why I'm guessing Mailnews: Networking for
the component). If anyone can reproduce, this should be a blocker.

Could reproduce with a clean profile as well. But when I reinstalled - and
enigmail thus wasn't present - I couldn't. Seems like enigmail is the cause of
this. Don't know if that means it should be invalid or not (should extensions be
able to crash us?) - leaving open until I find someone who knows.

extensions can very easily crash us (especially but not limited to ones that
include binaries), enigmail is fairly famous for this. as it happens your
talkback report has absolutely nothing useful in it.

jay: does talkback know which modules are loaded at specific addresses?

Nightly enigmail builds - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/nightly.html (how come no
one ever told me about those?) :) - made the crash go away. Assuming it was all
enigmail's fault, so marking invalid.
Jay: if you need anything more from me on tracing why the stack trace lacked
resolved frames, just holler.

reporter: i know why talkback wouldn't know anything about modules whose symbols
aren't stripped into its database. *i* was asking jay if talkback happened to
know which module lived at a given location. if it could tell me that 'enigmail'
or whatever was loaded for certain ranges (even drwatson will tell me that), i
could have been more certain about the problem.
