To whomever responds, thanks in advance:

Running Netscape 4.03 (X11) on RH Linux 4.2, kernel 2.0, with the
Netscape "mail polling" turned off. Netscape dies without any helping
messages. This happens frequently -- every day -- several times a day.
It doesn't happen if I am active on a web site. It happens when I am
dealing with mail -- either getting it, composing it, or sending it.
I have to ps and kill Netscape, then restart it.

This behavior seems to be related to the SLIP line provider logging
me out after about 10 minutes. However, it *doesn't always happen*.
My best defense is to kill the SLIP line myself if I know I'll be
not keeping the line hot for a while, but even then it frequently dies.
I think it is more likely to happen if the line has been connected and
later I kill it or it dies. It *usually* but not always happens when I
initiate an action that needs the line, but sometimes it dies when I
haven't knowingly accessed the line.

Has anybody out there had this problem and understood and fixed it?
Thanks again.
