But evidently, this syplheed process was running for quite some time, so this doesn't seem to be an issue of a gradual memory leak -- if there is any memory leaking here, it's quite sudden and only when moving mail as you said. > > ..could it be a font thing?

Uh, it could be tied somehow to the fonts, but I don't see any way to debug it on that basis alone as I can't imagine any way that would cause an X server to crash *or* cause an app to chew up memory. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
