Hi Simon,

I've tried to duplicate the segfault using balsa 2.3.0-2sarge1 and
2.3.2-1 as well, but I haven't had any luck reproducing it. Was the
email originally contained within a mbox or was it a standalone file in
a maildir?

Could you test 2.3.2-1 yourself? It should be fully compatible with
sarge dependency wise.

Cheers,
Andrew "Netsnipe" Lau
