Hi,

Like I wrote to the original bug reporter, it would be great if you
could provide a backtrace with a debug enabled balsa;

You will probably also need the libgtk2.0-0-dbg package.

If that's the case, maybe you can try older versions of libgmime and see
if it works? You can usually find these using
