352296 - Thunderbird crashes when opening an email AND setup the use of an LDAP addressbook.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 352146

(Thunderbird :: Address Book, defect)

Description

[mariourk]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060808 Epiphany/2.14 SeaMonkey/1.0.3
Build Identifier: Thunderbird nl 1.5.0.5

When I create an account and setup the use of an LDAP addressbook (autocompletion)
Thunderbird will crash as soon as I try to open an existing email in my mailbox
The strange thing is that some users don't have this problem but other users do.
Deleting the profile and setup a new one helps. But as soon as I start using LDAP
again the problem is back. So I can't use our central addressbook.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new profile
2. make sure it uses an LDAP addressbook (OpenLDAP, in my case)
3. Open an existing email from your inbox

Actual Results:  
A segmentation fault. TB crashes.

Expected Results:  
My email would be opened

I posted the problem on the forums:
