Just for the record ...
JavaScript and Java have nothing in common beyond the word "java" ... JavaScript is just that ... a scripting language ... more similar to Basic 
than to a C++ like language ... which is what Java the programming language is ...

So ... JavaScript causing PMMail to crash has nothing to do with Java the "language" ...

Just wanted to clarify ...
