OK, first backup your $HOME/.mozilla-thunderbird directory so we can be sure that this stays reproducible and that you don't loose your mail while trying to track this down.
I guess (hope) the problem is not the size of the mailbox, but a "bad" entry that might result in a corrupted .msf. So the idea is to spot a single mail that causes all the trouble. If you need instructions on how to do this, let me know Cheers, Alexander -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
