QA reports that the current thunderbird builds crash on send mail.

Maybe a non-UTF-8 string in there or something?

Ever since I updated earlier today I can recieve mail but every time I've tried to send mail it disappears and Thunderbird closes.

I cannot use this program for business purposes. I've lost a lot of work today.

I can't reproduce this.  Michael, where did you get the build?

I checked all of the .dtd and .properties files for non-utf8
and everything looks ok (piped the dtds through
"iconv -f utf8 -t iso-8859-1" with no errors, and 
all of the \uXXXX characters in the properties files
are legit.

Anyone else have other ideas as to what could be causing this?
Could a long translated string be overflowing some fixed buffer?

this is a blocker if we're going to release ga-IE for 1.8.0.5. 

It's really a dupe of 344710 and vice versa.
