Version: 1.9.6 (using KDE 3.5.6, compiled sources) Compiler: gcc version 3.4.6 [FreeBSD] 20060305 OS: FreeBSD i386 release 6.2-STABLE This might be a dupe of bug 53000, but I'm not sure since that one is claimed to be resolved. Using IMAP to talk to a courier IMAP server that is a bit disc constrained right now is causing kmail to load the check mail in a large folder and then hang trying to download the message body of the first unread message, even if the message is only a few k in size. I am seeing this with the I have left the program trying to download the message for a long time (>1/2 hour) with no change in it's behaviour. Aborting the message download causes kmail to crash when another message or folder is clicked on. Kmail has been rebuilt from FreeBSD ports deskutil/kdepim3 with -DWANT_KDE_DEBUG. Backtrace is attached along with the output of "grep kio_imap .xsession-errors" Thunderbird also takes time to download the message, but not as long as kmail and it doesn't crash if it fails.

Comment on attachment 20737 [details] Output of grep kio_imap .xession-errors There are logs from more than one kmail session there, I restarted it after it crashed.
Your backtrace doesn't help much unfortunately. Could you read http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports and improve the backtrace please? Thanks in advance.

Just to save me some compile time, do I need to rebuild *all* KDE packages or just kdelibs in addition to kdepim? Thanks.
Indeed, kdelibs and kdepim ought to be enough.
I'd suggest update to KDE to 3.5.7, kmail reserved a lot of crash fixes between 3.5.6 and 3.5.7.

Looking at the changelog it does look like a lot of my IMAP woes may be fixed by this. I'll upgrade as soon as 3.5.7 hits ports for FreeBSD RELENG_6 and build the whole lot with debug then try and reproduce this. Thanks.
>I'll upgrade as soon as 3.5.7 hits ports for FreeBSD OK, please reopen if you have a backtrace or if you have upgraded and more information.
