I haven't tried a recent build in a while, so I can't really tell. I
don't know if the mail_daemon problems are already settled or not yet,
but I don't have the time to just try it now when there is a chance
that it's seriously broken ;-)

The only real problem I know in ShowImage is the crashing bug that
appears pretty randomly. I already tried to corner it, but so far, I've
been unsuccessful, and I am out of ideas, too.
The bug also appears when using the debug malloc implementation, but it
doesn't trigger any of its debugging mechanisms unfortunately. I didn't
have the time yet to dig into it any deeper.

Bye,
