A noted in the later thread

- removing the .wab addressbook worked for me - autocomplete in address 
entry during compose no longer causes the freeze.


That file was

Hello, Everybody,

Bug in SeaMonkey 2.0.1.

When attempting to type in an e-mail address in Compose window. As soon 
as I finish typing, SeaMonkey stopped working. I tried to type, but 
nothing. I had to close this window. I got a message from SeaMonkey 
saying that this program did not respond. It asked me to end now or 
cancel. I ended this task.


This happens right after I updated from SeaMonkey 2.0 to 2.0.1 last 
night. This is a serious bug!!! This means that I can't type into an 
e-mail address so, I have to reply to people, or telnet into my unix box 
to use PINE to write!!!


Thank you.

Johnny :)

Perhaps the same problem I had.
See the thread 'Re: Edit msg as new SM 2.0.1' in this news group.

An excerpt from one of my messages:
According to more than one report - invalid characters within the
address book might have caused the problem.  I could not verify that
since I had remove what might have been the problem book.

Suggest you carefully look at all your entries or perhaps back them all
up, then remove them, import them back one at a time, and see if the
problem occurs.  If and when it does the last book imported may be the
trouble.  Check it out for invalid characters.

I seem to have the same/similar. Turning off autocomplete seems to 
'solve' it for me. That is serious, I have come to rely on autocomplete 
for addressing.  I have checked my address books (only three) and find 
no evident invalid characters.  It (now) happens as soon as any 
character is entered in the address window.


For me, it did not happen immediately after update to 2.0.1.  I sent at 
least one e-mail, I think maybe four, typing in the compose window 
address space, using autocomplete, without problem.  Then I started 
getting the unresponsiveness/freeze.  First after 2 characters, then at 
the first character (with the same name - getting as far ra, then only 
r).


I can (sort of) carry on by using my address books (an address entered 
that way causes no problem) - that is almost like using autocomplete (I 
suggest you could do the same).  But we cannot edit an address once it 
is in the compose window address space. Even a backspace stops SM in its 
tracks.


Memory usage by SM shows a slight increase (- 57,300 K or a little 
more, in Win XPH) but it is the highest of any process running.  CPU 
shows 0% until trying to close the application or process.  Then it goes 
up in 50% increments (not a good idea to click twice). No Mozilla crash 
reports are generated.


I retain a copy of SM 1.1.18 (on a completely different path) which 
continues to work fine.  It coexisted happily with 2.0 until 2.0.1 took 
over (update process is a touch 'rude', even more so for FFx 3.5.6 but I 
digress).

If you have information that might be helpful, please leave a comment in
the bug. Disabling MailNews autocompletion in Preferences (Mail 
Newsgroups, Addressing, Address Autocompletion, uncheck Local Address
Books) should at least stop the crash. Exporting, deleting and
reimporting all addresses might help.
