Using IMAP access to gmail, I have one mail, that trying to *reply* to, freezes modest with 100% reproducibility. To be precise, it freezes *whole* system - no input works - and either result in watchdog kicking in after some time, or device "wakes up" after a 10 minutes or so, asking for lock code, with modest crashed (and yellow-bar message about modest being terminated). To prevent that, one might connect via ssh from other machine and kill modest earlier.

I suspect that it might have something to do with sender using html formatting, but it's a shot in the wild. I'm not very keen on publishing this e-mail to the general public on forum, but I have no problem with sending appropriate files (if possible) to developer. Who should I send it, and what exactly to send?

// Edit

syslog doesn't show anything related to modest around the time of freeze/crash.
