It was already broken in the recent Nightlys and I tried debugging it last week.
The reason for the crashes is that it was compiled against OpenSSL 1.1,but we have OpenSSL 3 now and it needs to be rebuilt for OpenSSL 3.
Unfortunately,when trying to compile it,I get some very strange errors related to liblayout that I don’t know how to fix,therefore I can’t proceed to fixing the probably easy OpenSSL stuff.

That predates the adoption of OpenSSL 3, it was already there maybe due to the transition to GCC13.
Yes,but it prevents me from recompiling and getting to solve the OpenSSL stuff.
I also tried building with different Clang versions since I expected it to be compiler-related,but that didn’t change anything unfortunately.

Interesting, did you try with gcc11? Actually, It might be caused by something else.
GCC 11 isn’t available in the HaikuDepot anymore,so I couldn’t try.
Do you still have a GCC 11 hpkg around that you can send me?
Edit: Nevermind,I have it right here in the old package states.
Will try…
Going back to GCC 11 also doesn’t change anything,so the cause must be something else.
A updated version of both Liblayout and Beam has been released to HaikuPorts.
With the new update,it works fine for me again.

Fixed. 
!!!
Thx!!!
Grazie!
Unfortunately, still broken here.
Fresh install of x86_64 beta5 with latest update (+114). Installed beam and every time I select preferences to set up beam, it crashes.

I experienced the same here with the package from the repository,but I first thought I’ve locally messed something up on my computer.
If I build Beam from source,it works totally fine.
You need the latest liblayout_devel package for the build to work,then you can clone the Beam repo and build it:
git clone https://github.com/haikuarchives/beam
jam
After that’s done,you see the path of the newly compiled Beam binary.
Run it by pasting the path into the command prompt and hit Enter,now you should be able to open the preferences.
Settings window crashes in spam filter. Removing Beam/add-ons/Filters/Spam workarounds the crash. Of course you need to copy Beam folder to some writable location first.

Has Beam simply had a quick fix for Beta5 or been updated in other areas? I had problems with accessing my Apple IMAP account - as reported here - and am wondering if it worth trying again?

It has been recompiled to work with OpenSSL 3,but no other changes that I know of.
The last commit in Beams repository was 7 months ago.

It should be fixed by my latest patch so yes, it’s worth trying it again. Please let me know.

I had tried it back in August - after your last commit - so will probably wait before I try again. However it is good to hear that Beam is getting a bit of TLC and I hope you are able to welcome new developers drawn to Haiku by the new beta.

What is your issue exactly? My patch fixes a problem with iCloud IMAP where the message headers are empty while fetching. If you still experience it, I would like to know more.

Removed the [Solved] from the topic, not all seems to be not fixed.

Is there sufficient information in the thread I linked earlier in the conversation? As for whether the problem needs to be flagged as fixed, the programme as a whole is reported now to work in B5 but my own issue may not. However my clean install of B5 I am having problem with the normal email app which I will fix first as it was working before on a nightly a couple of months back.
Edit: I installed beam from HaikuDepot (with the normal mail already set up but I am only seeing blank emails) and every time I go to the preferences it crashes.
