Description Paul Osmialowski 2002-07-23 02:19:53 EDT

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.78 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.19-pre10 i686)

Description of problem:
I tested it few times, always with the same result. When I'm using mc at the
same time as new mail come to the spooler mc crashes with Segmentation Fault.
Before it fails the "You Have New Mail" message is shown at the bottom of the
screen. I'm using sendmail as SMTP server. Also, I'm using 2.4.17 kernel with
newnat (H323 forwarding) and grsecurity patches (so it's not a standard RedHat
installation).


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use mc
2. log on to another server and send mail
3. watch and see

What libc do you have?

Comment 2 Paul Osmialowski 2003-06-10 15:41:14 EDT

After several updates of glibc and kernel problem has gone forever.
