worked around it by putting in different password, not sure if this is still a bug so can be closed. I'm sure if it occurs to someone else it can be re-opened.

Component: Applications/Mail → System/libroot.so
Keywords: mail account removed
Owner: changed from bga to axeld
Summary: Mail Crash on creating an account → E-mail preferences crash on creating an account

I've seen this a lot lately. The root cause is likely not in the E-mail preferences (Preferences/Mail).

The DNSQuery class of Mail reads into resolv.conf. Maybe it simply doesn't like something which the new DHCPClient code writes in there (hrev35954 and later, but I'm sure there is an earlier commit)

Could you try with hrev35970 or later ? It shouldn't crash anymore. Probably something still won't work, but at least we could see some error message, if you start the email preflet from the Terminal.

BTW, I cannot reproduce it here (on VirtualBox)

hrev35981 Tried today, took me a while to recreate and wont crashout to gdb anymore. just freezes, on first attempt at adding account goes to host server screen fine, but if you click back then ok to add again, it freezes.

Please launch the email preflet from the Terminal and paste here the output, so we can see where it hangs.

comment:8 by vooshy, 15 years ago

Okay, re-run from Terminal, will attach the output.

I tried with your nameserver, too, but I cannot reproduce. Can you also attach your resolv.conf here ?

Thanks! Actually, I can reproduce this everytime, also with my configuration. I wasn't able because I was launching E-mail with 

LD_PRELOAD=libroot_debug.so E-mail

trying to find out what's wrong. Which is weird, though, since it should crash that way too.

According to vooshy on IRC, this is not hapenning anymore, so closing it.
