Dear Bug Team! I can consistently segfault XEmacs just by typing M-p with my current configuration. It appears that there is a gtk issue with that key stroke. The following is the backtrace off the core file: #0 0xffffe410 in ?? () #1 0xbfffe76c in ?? () #2 0xbfffe6e4 in ?? () #3 0x0000000b in ??

This facility, while part of base XEmacs, is heinously underfeatured, and not going to get better in the medium term. We include it so that bug reports work without packages; we suggest that you choose and/or install one of the other mail clients from packages if you're doing something other than M-x report-xemacs-bug , or even if you are reporting bugs regularly. To choose a package from those installed, click on "Options" -> "Internet" -> "Compose Mail With ..." and decide on one from the list. Gnus and VM are full-featured and have active user communities.
