I think I fixed the random Icedove crashes I was experiencing on Jessie

config editor.
Interesting. Why do you think this helps? How long are you running
without crashes?
It's been weeks, maybe even months now. I found this suggestion
somewhere on the web after searching for something like 'random
thunderbird crash'. I have no idea what behavior this setting controls,
but setting it to false hasn't removed any visible functionality as far
as I can see.
After changing the setting I noticed one feature was missing -- the
ability of Icedove to suddenly make my desktop appear while I was trying
to read messages!
That's why I returned the setting to its default. I like surprises.
