Version: 1.5.4 (using KDE 3.1.4) Installed from: SuSE Compiler: gcc version 3.3.1 (SuSE Linux) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-99-athlon when opening an email (IMAP) it displays the "fancy header", but sometimes it doesnt display the email content. If i switch to fixed font or for example another encoding type, then the content becomes visible. after trying to reproduce the problem by opening all kinds of different emails, i found out, when i go to the configuration and modify something (and turn it back to the original state) and click [ok], he will open the last email.. with the body!!... dont know if this is really a bug... or maybe it has something to do with 'the fancy headers!!'...
You are the first one to report this although KDE 3.1 is out for more than 10 months. It very likely that the IMAP server you are using is the culprit. Maybe it sometimes doesn't answer? A lot has been changed in the IMAP code since KDE 3.1 and unfortunately we don't have the resources to fix non-grave problems in KDE 3.1. Therefore I close your bug report with the hope that it's fixed in KDE 3.2. If you should be able to reproduce the bug with KDE 3.2 (e.g. with KDE 3.2 Beta 2 which should be available in the next few days) then please reopen this bug report and give us some details about your IMAP server. Thanks for taking the time to file a bug report!
I experience an issue a lot like this on KMail 1.9.6 / KDE 3.5.8. Sometimes the fancy header will render, sometimes it will be empty, sometimes the whole mail will appear. No errors are displayed, the progress bar at the bottom right claims that nothing is happening. Some emails don't exhibit the problem at all (this alone would explain why the developer found it hard to reproduce) and emails which do exhibit the problem continue to exhibit it forever whereas emails which don't exhibit the problem never exhibit it in the future either. Changing the font sometimes works, sometimes doesn't, and sometimes changes between the two states where the message body isn't shown. Additionally, if I continue to click around when this happens, KMail ultimately dies with a segmentation fault. The following is the part of the output which is not just "(no debugging symbols found)" printed over 9,000 times. #6 0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall () #7 0xb5e6a875 in raise () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 #8 0xb5e6c201 in abort () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 #9 0xb60766e0 in __gnu_cxx::__verbose_terminate_handler () from /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 #10 0xb6073f65 in ??

I just stumbled over exactly this bug and Kontact just crashed with the same backtrace on my system. (Kubuntu 8.04 with KDE-3.5.9)
> ... then please reopen this bug report ... How do I do this?
