I'm getting confused by the threading here, but in case you missed my post to the hijacked thread: Rebooted? I think it may not be kmail--you may have a hardware problem. Something about kmail may be accessing a specific part of your hd, or using a specific amount of cpu or memory, or ethernet, and that is the cause of the crash. The reason I say this, a few years ago, sometimes when I tried to transfer files from-or-to one of the computers on my network I would get a spontaneous reboot. Now, the weird part is, more than one computer was doing this, but one specific computer was always involved (either it would reboot or the one being transferred to or from would reboot). After a couple of months of pulling my hair out, I changed the network card in that machine and the problem went away! | > | > What is up with that ?????? I have never had any problems with Kmail. Well, any problem I've ever had was cured by deleting my /home/username/.kde and logging back in. e
