I use Seamonkey to print crossword puzzles, path of least resistance, 
Evince will not print them from Firefox? Seamonkey just happens to 
include an e-mail function so I tried it.

[root at box10 bobg]# thunderbird --version

(process:2767): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 
'sys_page_size == 0' failed
  Thunderbird 24.3.0

Whatever that means?

Not much, but I never give up hope.

All I did was delete a bunch of extraneous stuff from "Mail" that I kept 
rsyncing between Thunderbird/computers, specifically;

/pop.juno.com
/smart mailboxes

I see no connection there, but obviously something has happened. I 
couldn't see anything in "Config" that looked as though it might help.
