I've noticed that when i leave mail.app minimized for a period of time and I get back to it to pick up mail or read a message, most times it crashes. It won't start unless I reboot (not even login off my user works). It's a weird crash, it displays the main window, but it just disappears.

Looking for clues in the console crash logs, it mentions an EXEC_BREAKPOINT, which I'm sure it's a trap in the code for a certain condition (not too helpful for me), that the folks in Cupertino to look for. Sometimes I notice a pre-binding message, but that could be when I'm attempting a restart after the crash. The addressbook is closed, and I only have 1 IMAP and 1 POP account configured in the application.

Other than closing the app and restarting when I want to use it, what do you suggest? Have you seen this? If so, how did you get around it?

Anxiously waiting for 10.3.2.... Miguel
