295984 - crash when opening compose window on IMAP accounts (using imported profile)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 254527

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[Martin Weis]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.3; Linux) KHTML/3.3.2 (like Gecko)
Build Identifier: Version 1.0.2 (20050331)

Thunderbird crashes when I open the compose window.        
This seems to be especially with IMAP accounts. For POP accounts this does not      
happen.  
  
I see two things to consider:      
a) I imported the profile from mozilla 1.7.8 and the SMTP-setting were not      
imported, only the default SMTP server appears in the settings. Magically some    
of the others are usable (= were imported), but do not appear.    
b) I am using the german language pack. 
  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Import profile from mozilla 1.7.8 
2. Open an IMAP account 
3. "reply" or "compose" 
 
Actual Results:  
crashes thunderbird. 
  

Expected Results:  
Proper compose window. 

I am using debian and upgraded the pakage to the following version 1.0.2 
(details of package below). 
 
First is the output on the console, second in debugger:

I sent the report of the quality feedback agent and received the following ID:
TB6266998G
captured at 05/31/05 01:58

I used the standard downloadable version of thunderbird, but this is more
detailed in the report.

On the commandline the following message appeared:
$ ./thunderbird
./run-mozilla.sh: line 451:  6062 Speicherzugriffsfehler  "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
Speicherzugriffsfehler == segmentation fault

Cheer up and thanks for your great work,
Martin
