This is not a bug in R. Please read the FAQs before submitting bug 
report! In particular, for details on the crash you have observed, see 
the R for Windows FAQ 2.18: "Entering certain characters crashes Rgui."

BTW: It works without problems on WinNT4.0 given your mail-tools has not 
changed any character.

So try to remove some of the language specific characters in that file 
or try again with a replace msvcrt.dll.
