Hi
I'm having problems with certain type of spam in thunderbird.
When I receive a spam with a subject starting by =?ISO-2022-JP
thunderbird crashes immediately, and then, each time I start
thunderbird, it crashes at startup.
A specific subject that makes thunderbird crash is :
=?ISO-2022-JP?B?GyRCJDMkcyRLJEEkbxsoQg==?=
To be able to use thunderbird again, I have to :
- edit the Inbox file to rename the subject
- stop the network connection so that thunderbird does not download
mail automatically on startup
- start thunderbird and add a filter rule on the body (filtering by
=?ISO-2022-JP on the subject does not work)
- restart my network connection
Note :
I also tried evolution, and evolution freezes with this type of spam.. I
don't really know if this issue is specific to thunderbird or not.
Thanks in advance and for your help to the community !
Marc
