I haven't seen the extreme slowness, but I do get the error "The process for the imap://MailAndNews.com protocol died unexpectedly." frequently, and occasionally a crash (see bug #53000). Peter: do you use NFS $HOME? Please do a strace on kmail and see what it does. If it doesn't do strace action, compile with --enable-debug and attach gdb to it to see what it is. Not reproducible and no further reaction from the reporter. Please Reopen Bug: Problem persist: Accessing plenty of IMAP folders over a slow connection or accessing IMAP folders over a slow connection result in a crash. Happens as a standalone or as a kpart running inside kontact. The same error and behavior has been observered with Kmail versions from 3.1.x throughout 3.5.7 with downloaded and self-compiled versions (RPMs) on different SuSE Linux versions: - SuSE 9.2 - SuSE 9.3 - openSuSE 10.1 Error occurs while accessing cyrus imapd from the following locations: - from work: 100MBit, 1 hop - from home: 6 MBit, 15-20 hops System info at home: KDE Version KDE 3.5.7 "release 80.1" , openSUSE Application 1.2.4 (enterprise 20070904.708012) Operating System Linux (i686) release 2.6.16.53-0.8-default Compiler Target: i586-suse-linux System at work only differs in the running kernel version, I think it is 2.6.4.something and at work the RPMs are self compiled from downloaded SRPMs. I observed, that increasing the number of subscribed imap folders exposes a similar/same bug at work, while decreasing the folders at work gives me a working application. We have approx. 70 imap folders (customer an project infos) at work, so I do not need all of them all the time, but it is pretty tedious to unsubscribe to unused folders before subscribing to new ones just to make sure kmail does not crash. I will attach a tracback from home. Created attachment 21765 [details]
Traceback for the crash on openSuSE 10.1 with KDE 3.5.7 (rel. 80.1) while accesing imapd over a slow connection
This is the traceback from home.
Once I click on any folder to see it's contents, kmail simply crashes.
I have enabled the option "only check opened folders" but that does not seem to
make any difference.
