User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; .NET4.0C)

My wife and i both previously used Outlook for email. Some time ago we changed to Thunderbird and successfully imported all of our Outlook folders and mail. Has worked fine ever since until we upgraded to 3.1.4 yesterday. Now clicking on the arrow to the left of the Outlook Mail folder to expand it causes Thunderbird to crash, hence can no longer see or read these imported items.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Thunderbird
2.Click to expand Outlook folder
3.
Actual Results:  
Thnderbird crashes...actually get "not responding" message.

Expected Results:  
Have to close and restart Thunderbird to continue....still cant access imported Outlook folders.

Could you follow the instructions at https://developer.mozilla.org/En/How_to_get_a_stacktrace_for_a_bug_report , make sure to replace firefox by thunderbird and get us a stack trace.

We'd need symbols to have a clue about what's happening on the stack. Ludo, can you help get symbols?

Keith can you try to disable BullGuard and restart the procedure ?

this isn't a problem with symbols.

reporter please install and use the *32bit* version of windbg, not the *64bit* version.

Wep - saw it after the upload. Keith is working on getting us a proper 32 bit stack trace.

Can anybody give me any pointers as to what I am doing wrong?

Following the instructions exactly but Thunderbird fails to open when I press Go under the Debug menu.

you shouldn't have used 'g' at this point, but it doesn't look like it mattered.

0x23
0x76992fda
ntdll!LdrpInitializeProcess+0x133f
ntdll!_LdrpInitialize+0x78
ntdll!LdrInitializeThunk+0x10

is a very strange crash :(

Hopefully one of you guys might be able to make something of this.

Attachment: TB outlook import folder structure

(you have all your folders backed up, right? :) )

If you click on the top level folder called  Outlook Import  there should be nothing to list except other folders. Attached is the folder structure of a simple import which shows this.

So if you create a new top level fold XXX in local folders, and then with thunderbird shut down, in windows explorer copy the folders in Outlook Import to XXX, can you open folder XXX after starting thunderbird?

doesn't look substantially different to me

so, this folder worked in version 2, on this windows 7 machine?
