This may or may not be the problem you're seeing, but I was recently very
startled to discover that Confera was dying on messages with carriage returns!

I ended up making the following changes to Confera.py:

o Dump regsub module in favor of ts_regex
o Change all calls to "split(regsub.gsub(..." to "split(ts_regex.gsub(crlf..."
o Make module global constant "crlf = '\r\n|\n\r' "
