Mail.app is crashing in Panther for me

[Miguel Palacios (lists)]

I've noticed that when i leave mail.app minimized for a period of time 
and I get back to it to pick up mail or read a message, most times it 
crashes.  It won't start unless I reboot (not even login off my user 
works).  It's a weird crash, it displays the main window, but it just 
disappears.

Looking for clues in the console crash logs, it mentions an 
EXEC_BREAKPOINT, which I'm sure it's a  trap in the code for a certain 
condition (not too helpful for me), that the folks in Cupertino to look 
for.  Sometimes I notice a pre-binding message, but that could be when 
I'm attempting a restart after the crash.  The addressbook is closed, 
and I only have 1 IMAP and 1 POP account configured in the application.

Other than closing the app and restarting when I want to use it, what 
do you suggest?   Have you seen this?  If so, how did you get around 
it?

Anxiously waiting for 10.3.2,

Miguel
