Hi Thorsten,

Yesterday I received a spam which evidently had a blank or maybe no
From: line. Every time SC went to read it, it crashed the system and I
got the following message:

Application popup: sylpheed.exe: sylpheed.exe - Application Error : The
instruction at "0x002366ab" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The
memory could not be "read".

Click on OK to terminate the program
Click on CANCEL to debug the program 

I eventually got rid of it by writing a deletion filter rule!

Just had a good idea and found the message in K9's corpus. Here is is. I
notice a blank line in the header!!

Dear etc rest deleted.

So it may not be a bug but maybe lack of from: needs to be made so it
can't crash the system?
