Bug#426320: mutt-ng: on some mailboxes often hangs with max CPU usage while attempting to open from sidebar
Package: mutt-ng
Version: 0.0+20060429-3
Severity: normal
Sometimes when attempting to open a mailbox from the sidebar, mutt just
hangs, top shows it fully using any remaining CPU time (so mutt-ng has
usage of for example 98% CPU), dosen't recover from that state even when
left running for a few hours. I have one mailbox where it happens quite
ofen, although not always. I don't remember having it happen for any
other mailbox. This mailbox'es name begins with an 'a'.
When this happens, the last line shows this message:
Sorting mailbox...
The only way to recover is to kill mutt-ng. Sometimes it happens every
time I try to open that mailbox after killing mutt, that I have to use
standard mutt to open that mailbox, because mutt-ng will hang every
time.
