Since the last update thunderbird crashes everytime I want to look in my Spam folder. It's an IMAP Folder. Perhaps there is a corrupt mail, but kmail has no problems opening the folder. On the console i get following: $ thunderbird No running windows found (thunderbird-bin:11227): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has wrapped in calculation (did you pass G_MAXLONG?) /usr/libexec/mozilla-launcher: line 116: 11227 Segmentation fault "$mozbin" "$@" thunderbird-bin exited with non-zero status (139) $ Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.start thinderbird 2.go to my SPAM folder 3.

Please try moving $HOME/.thunderbird out of the way (back it up) and create a new profile and test please ... most likely a change in the xml parsing of the config causing such a problem.
(In reply to comment #1) that worked. How can I find out which file is responsible for the error?
it is in your .thunderbird you moved out of way go threw you should find a dir called Junk.msf you can remove it that is only way I know you can verify it or you can search around.
(In reply to comment #3) yes you were right. I just deleted it and after that thunderbird fetched all headers and everything is working again. Thanks
As this is nothing more then a corrupted file closing.
