Description René Krell 2008-06-04 10:03:30 UTC
Version:           1.9.51 (using 4.00.80 (KDE 4.0.80 >= (KDE 4.1 Beta1) "release 4.2", compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.25.4-8-default

If I want to create a filter to move a message with particular characteristics to another folder, Kontact with KMail crashes if I click on the button for choosing a target folder.

For reproducing:
- Choose a message from Inbox
- In context menu choose "Create Filter" -> "Filter on From ..."
- "Filter Action" - "Please select a folder" - <button> - a click on this <button> crashes KMail

I can't reproduce this crash following your test case. Could you please provide a backtrace for this crash ?

You can find instructions on this page : http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
Comment 2 René Krell 2008-06-04 11:47:03 UTC
I see, I forgot some details. The test case continues:
- Folder windows opens with:
  "- LocalFolders"    |    "Local Folders"
  but there is not any of the many subfolders to see in this view.

(Maybe important) hint:
The ~/Mail was overtaken and NOT migrated in any way from KDE 3.5.9 to KDE 4.1 directly. I stopped working with KMail from 3.5.9 and working now with the new KMail on the same folder. Is there a problem with some indexes?
Comment 3 René Krell 2008-06-04 11:48:56 UTC
Another detail: The crash happens if I click on the popup with the "Local Folders". No stack trace is offered at all (or just can't find it?)
Comment 4 René Krell 2008-06-04 12:00:43 UTC
Now I launched "Rebuild Index..." from the context menu of folder index, for which I want to create a filter on dedicated messages. No change.
Do I really have to import the messages I already see in the Folder view from KDE 3.5.9 over "Import Messages..."?

The crash happens on clicking at the "-" in "- Local Folders" with an empty folder list, probably some kind of NullPointer.
