without some extra info there's nothing we can do.
see this page: http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/page.cgi?id=bug-writing.html

re-open if you have some information

This seems to be caused by the gtkhtml2 viewer plugin. When I unload it, the mailbox folder behaves normally. The folder causing the crash is full of html messages.

You are probably viewing a particular message in that folder, since the viewer plugin doesn't operate on folders, but on messages.

Does the crash happen when viewing any message in that folder? If not, it would be helpful to have an exact and full copy of a message which causes the crash.
Does the crash happen when viewing a message in different MH folder?

Just to be sure - by "MH folder" you mean one folder (subfolder) within a MH mailbox, or do you mean the entire MH mailbox?

Indeed by "MH folder" I mean a subfolder created inside a MH mailbox.
I'm sorry I cannot replicate this bug, I'm now using 3.8.0 and it seems to work fine.
If my memory serves me right, I couldn't check at the time whether it was due to a particular message or not because it crashed as soon as I clicked on the folder in the folder list.
At the time I "solved" the problem by using the fancy html viewer instead.
Sorry for not being more helpful...

Closing, as this seems to be fixed since 3.8.0.
