Hi, I'm running AMD64 sid and I am experiencing an exceedingly annoying problem with Kontact. I think the problem is actually Kmail as when I try and run Kmail on it's own I see the same problem. Anyway, the symptoms:
When I start Kontact almost immediately exits with a SIGSEGV. It last just about long enough to flash up the window before exiting. Starting it from the command line doesn't really show anything useful (Sorry I forgot to get the output). Repeatedly opening kontact or kmail shows exactly the same behaviour every time. The only way I have found to fix this is to open thunderbird (or another mail client) and move the message in the inbox into another folder (eg delete my spam). Then kmail works fine. Thinking it was choking on one of the messages I tried moving them back into the inbox to see if that would trigger the problem again - it didn't. The most annoying part of the problem, however, is that kmail forgets all of it's per directory settings when this problem occurs such as expiry times, "act on new mail in this folder" and threaded view. It also has to rebuild it's local cache of messages (the account is on an IMAP server). Having a look at the sizes of the .index files for this account (under ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail/imap) seems to indicate that kmail deletes them or empties them when it crashes which I suspect is why the settings are being lost. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? More specifically any idea on how I can stop this happening :o) Cheers, Graham -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
