Here's the debug log.

I forgot to mention that it doesn't crash with the official download from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/thunderbird/ (respectively http://www.mozilla-europe.org/de/products/thunderbird/ for the German version).

With the new update (2.0.0.9-2), it still crashes, but now with a error message from Bug Buddy concerning gecko (see attachement). And it really crashes this time instead of just not responding. :-)

I just noticed that it doesn't freeze when receiving mails that are marked as "read" already (via the Gmail web interface). Is there any progress?

Thank you and sincerely yours!

ping...?

Okay, next update: I crashes when receiving mails from _any_ mail-hoster. Tested with freshly installed thunderbird on a new profile...
Isn't it reproducible for you, Alexander?

I haven't been able to reproduce this problem on neither x86_64 nor i686 with the latest build which is up in testing. What happens though sometimes, is that thudnerbird seems to hang when reconnecting to an imap account using SSL. Well, I haven't had any crashes so far. The Log you've attached is from an older version which still existed in /opt it seems. Did you upgrade since then?

I have exactly the same problem! Haven't tried the official download though
Version is 2.0.0.12! I've attached the console-output, seems to be exactly the
same as Julius'

I have this Problem too, tb crashes on mail arrival in my imap accounts, but it seems to happen only when e-mail notification is enabled.

In such a case it would be advisable to report this upstream

It works for me using the default theme; using Tango breaks it again.

Thunderbird is at 2.0.0.14 now, is this bug still valid?
Comment by Greg (dolby) - Friday, 04 July 2008, 12:13 GMT
Any feedback from the reporter?

I'm so sorry, but today, Tb crashed again! :-(
Gonna try official binaries now, but I don't think it's a upstream bug, but rather a problem with Arch components.

Does it still happen with thunderbird 2.0.0.16-1 ?
Comment by Julius Bullinger (kwurzel) - Monday, 28 July 2008, 19:25 GMT
It does, but only with a custom skin and notifications enabled.
