Ok, i think it has something to do with replying to a message that is a reply to a GPG signed message. Because if i select a non-signature part of the message and click reply, then there is no crash.

Volodya,

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported in a currently supported version of Ubuntu?

Please let us know if you do otherwise this bug report will expire in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
