Ok - thanks - the best help you can give us is trying to find out more
about what triggers this destruction of the user defaults.

Does it happen when multiple applications are accessing user defaults at
the same time ?  Or when an application crashes ?  Which application ?  
Are threads involved (I think GNUMail uses threads, doesn't it ?) ?

Any help in trying to reproduce/track the bug is appreciated.
