Using Elog 2.9.2

Elog crashes when making 10 replies, I narrowed the crash down to the Propagate Attributes setting.

I have an attribute "Status" that can be toggled between "Open" and "Closed" and that propagates all replies.  On the 10th reply the application crashed, this is repeatable 100% of the time.  Without the propagate option everything works fine.

Attached is my config file parsed down.

Is there a way around this, or is there a way on reply to change the attribute of the log note you replied to from open to closed without using the propagate option?

Was a tricky problem. When you use "Propagate Attributes", a routine is called inside elogd which recursively goes through all replies. It uses quite some memory for temporary storage of attributes and attachments. So after a certain time you get a stack overflow since you run out of memory. Since the stack size is different under different operating systems, it was hard for me to reproduce it initially. Now I use some different memory (dynamic heap instead stack) which should fix the problem. Can you pull from GIT and give it a try?
