Another thing I saw was that there was a PMMAIL.!!! file in the TEMP 
dir. After I removed it, the problem went away for a while.

It now occurs less often, but still sometimes.

Especially opening a saved message in the draft folder usually opens a 
completely blank message. If I mark the message in the preview pane, and
open it then, it worked.

Stranger and stranger....
