The best way to handle this is to report a bug. It will be handled by the
Mozilla engineers.

Subject: Buffer Overflow in Geck/Netscape 5.0/6.0?

We've been investigating a problem that seems to occur whenever Netscape
6.0 or Mozilla Gecko 5.0 receive Multipart/Mixed information, that
appears to be a buffer overflow or in the code.  At the very least,
there appears to be a condition allowing a partial memory dump to the
screen.
