What size (compressed)? Which HTML renderer, which version of it (IERenderer provides an About dialog via its toolbar button menu displaying it, BearHtml shows its version on Pegasus Mail's status bar if an HTML message is open and you press Shift + F1)?

I've recently received some multi-part emails with HTML parts that have caused
Pmail to hang while opening the New Mail folder. The only way of exiting
appeared to be by right clicking on the Pmail icon in the task bar and ending
the non-responsive programme.

I moved all recent .CNMs into another directory and then copied them back to
the normal Pmail folder, one at a time, with Pmail closed and then opening
Pmail to see if that was the offending file.

By chance I discovered that if it was left hanging for a very long time (I got
sidetracked into a domestic task) it eventually opened but the rogue email had
disappeared, i.e. it no longer existed as a .CNM file and had not been
filtered into a regular folder (including Deleted Messages).

I have the original rogue file which I can send to anyone who thinks that they
may be able to resolve the problem.
