These large positive error numbers are actually the addresses of memory
objects that cause an exception. It's something the Newton OS reports
when it can't find anything more meaningful, and as a result the number
is pretty meaningless to anybody.
What would really help me is a log generated by the debug version of
Mail V. After installing MailVDebug, set the log up by going to Mail V
Prefs > Debug page; capture the usual suspects and all I/O and (unless
you use NTK) direct output to Notes. When Mail V disconnects, a session
log is created in Unfiled Notes. (You'll need to edit it though - if
your IMAP server doesn't support encrypted login your password will be
shown in the login sequence!) You can reinstall the non-debug MailV
afterwards.
I've been using Mail V for my .Mac account for some time now with no
errors, so I'm keen to know what's going wrong in your case.
