Step: 1) start apprunner 2) select file/new/mail message 3) click into the "to" edit field 4) close the compose window (closebox) 5) crash... This appends only on Mac and only if the cursor is into a recipient field which is part of a tree widget.

I can't even get this window to come up on Mac,using 9/2 opt build.
I can duplicate this problem on MacOS 1999-09-02-08-m10 build on a G3 machine. I crash right when I try to close the window with my caret in the address field. It does not appear to crash if my caret is in the compose subject line or message body. Note: previously 8/30 build, the compose window took an extremely long time to come up on a non-G3 Mac. Maybe this is what Peter Trudelle is running into?
I don't think so, I expected abysmal performance, so I gave it a minute between menu selections. There was no apparent activity, and the app was still responding to other events after the menu selection.
Whiteboard: [PR1]
I think this needs to be fixed for PR1, so I added a note to the Status Whiteboard.

Finally able to reproduce this, in today's opt build. Looks like the destructor for nsBaseWidget is going off into the weeds. reassigning to danm as p2 for m11

fyi, In the recent M11 Mac commercial build 1999-11-15 build, I was not able to reproduce the problem. I will re-test with a M12 build before verifying bug. Thanks :)
be carrefull, this bug is moving, the step for reproducing it change almost every day.
Thanks for the heads up. I will try different steps to reproduce this problem. :)
oops, ignore my last comment, I was speaking for bug 17937 which you can reproduce in all platform and not this one.
