Bug Description

... while retrieving a message through IMAP

My primary email account is IMAP one. I did the following before Thunderbird crashed:

* Opened a folder with ~500 messages.
* Changed filter to show messages with attachments only.
* Viewed a message with attachment.
* Set filter back to show all messages.
* Went to Inbox, where I opened a new message to read.
* Moved this message to mentioned folder with ~500 messages.
* Tried to open this folder.
* Crashed.

I had the same problem with multiples mailboxes in IMAP (with folders and subfolders, many of them are > 500 messages, > 3000 messages (with filters)).

I had it on startup, without having the time to read one message.

I believe the same crash happened. All my mailboxes are IMAP and I guess the problem comes from the junk mail checker : during startup, I have 3 IMAP + 1 IMAPS mailboxes automatically checked. I configured them so as their junk mail are thrown into the junk folder of the global account. This global account has a 30 last messages rule. So it only keeps the 30 last junk mails.

Since this crash, the limitation has been dropped out and now, I have more than 30 junk mails inside it. I have to re-set the limitation rule. Unless I don't do it, it seems Thunderbird no longer crashes.
