i can confirm this. especially when starting communicator (smotif-4.61, on
recent potato with 2.2.10), opening messenger, getting connectet to
mailserver (imap), downloading headers, just before mailfilter will apply
to those new mails communicator just quits.

and of course ther are all the other "features" like bus-errors, shutting
all by closing one of it's windows, any problems about communicator we hear
and write since some time .....
