Hi Daniel,

Actually (for me) it crashes on NNTP (GMaNe) reading mailing lists and
indeed libetpan is in the backtrace in the crashes. Not sure if it's
the SSL/TLS handling or date format handling of a particular article
(or a new line) as it's not triggered by a special set of actions,
rather core-dumping (seemingly) sporadic on NNTP article browsing with
a certainty it does crash and can not be ran for more than a couple of
minutes / hours at a time.

I've put a side comment in the other thread too (spotted the libetpan
mention right away), just in case it is useful but it's not yet made the
mailing list (held for review probably, don't know what causes several
hours of delay on posts to the mailing lists).

I'll wait for a package and see how it fares. I've been dealing with
this claws-mail bug and many other (RSSyl) one way or another for a
long time, let's see if it's the only culprit.

Thanks for your follow up on this, much appreciated (as always).

P.S. Excuse me for the carbon copy directly but not always messages
even reach the mailing list (especially if new posts appear before mine
make it to the list). This is however not related to the claws-mail
bugs and I have an idea what's happening :)

Regards,
Anton
