Re: Balsa crash on draft save attempt

[Barry Skidmore <skidmore mail worldvenue org>]

I have not had this specific crash, but have had one that might be related.

I am using Balsa 1.4.0 and occasionally (not every time), after using
the spell-checker and finding a misspelled word, if I click to replace
the incorrect word with the correct one, Balsa crashes abruptly.
