Not exactly. It's just *some* posts do this. This might be a particular
piece of code in those posts, or something else.

Yesterday I switched my subscription to this list to get email as
HTML, and after a dozen emails or so, I got *one* post that crashed
YAM straight away, the one from Sam Thomas with the subject "Mediator
site and Medication". This time it didn't get lost however, and I passed
it on to the developers for review.

This little puppy will crash YAM and bring your whole system down completely
even if you attach it to an email of yours and then try to read that
attachment. The perfect virus for YAM users, in fact. :(

I'll turn HTML subscription on again and wait for the next one that again
crashes YAM, then we'll try to find a pattern.

Quote carefully and read all ADMIN:README mails
