v0.94 causes crashes

[tomreyn]

Please have a look at
https://crash-analysis.mozilla.com/crash_analysis/20140227/20140227_Thunderbird_24.3.0-interesting-addons.txt
and similar files there, looking for AutoarchiveReloaded there. It seems like v0.94 is currently a source of many TB crashes (and this might be a starting point to learn more about the source of these issues - chances are the friendly people on the Mozilla IRC network can help, too).

I'm not sure about these reports. They talk about access violations, which means the program tried to write or free pointers which does not belong to the program.
I think these reports are about Thunderbird doing so.

In an extension I don't have pointers (of course I have also some sort of JavaScript pointers but invalid access of them should lead to JavaScript exceptions and not to crashs of Thunderbird.)

Therefore I'm not sure if these errors are really errors of the extension or if the extension shows errors of Thunderbird itself (at least it will cause Thunderbird to do a lot of work if you for example archive HUGE inboxes).

Makes sense to me, thanks for explaining your perspective. It might still be interesting to learn what, if anything, could be done about it, but I guess this is a bug in Thunderbird then and it could be closed here (unless you intend to track it somehow).
