Mail kernel panic?

[stoneage]

There are a lot of kernel panics going on around the forums. I was getting them on an iMac DV SE , but I also had a display problem that forced me to buy a new eMac (1 gig Apple ram, 80 gig H/D) The kernel panics returned and I started troubleshooting. Did all the maintenance stuff including DiskWarrior, and only used the basic apps ( Safari, iCal, AddyBook, Watson and System Prefs). I suspected Mail because that was the only common denominator to that point. When I fired up Mail I soon got a panic while composing a message, after I had sent and received some items. Should I reinstall Mail using Pacifist? Will I lose all my mailboxes and prefs?

how often you get kps? once a month, week, day, 20 times a day?
when did they start occurring?
do you have any haxies etc installed?
do you have only original apple ram? any perifieries that are new?

I have a 2 week old eMac. I unplugged all the external USB stuff (FW burner, Palm dock, even the USB hub as I have more ports now) The only active menu bar item is WeatherPop. I get a kp whenever I use Mail for awhile. I have had Mail turned off for 2 days now and haven't had a kp. I am only using Safari, iCal, AddyBook, Watson and System Prefs. I tossed a Hotmail plugin and the beloved JunkMatcher with the same results. The kp's seem random. I would walk in with one on the screen and then it would happen while I was working. I am going to restart Mail and try again later. Here is the last panic.log if you know how to read them:
