This happened with 3.4.0 and also happens with kmail 1.8.1 on 3.4.1 (installed on i386 from http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde-3.4.1/). To reproduce: - click "New Message" icon - use Message->Insert File Inserting an empty file causes the crash, so it doesn't seem to depend on the file contents. Reported on the debian-kde list 6/23/2005. Wolfgang Mader <Wolfgang_Mader@gmx.de> reproduced it on amd64. Timo Springmann <timo@orangeorb.de> could not reproduce it. Note that these are *experimental* debian packages; the problem could be debian or packaging related. ii kmail 3.4.1-1 KDE Email client Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Kmail must have generated that somewhere along the line (I certainly didn't add it by hand), and it apparently causes the crash. So there are two problems here: 1) Kmail generated a recent-encodings line that is somehow bogus. 2) Kmail doesn't validate recent-encodings when reading it from kmailrc. 392409 2 neitzke 2005-11-23 06:42:14 +0000 I just want to add that I had this problem for a while too, so it's not a completely isolated occurrence. I cannot quite remember whether this was before or after I switched from Mandrake to Gentoo, but in any case, it is not just a Debian issue. 405338 3 winter 2006-01-11 19:32:52 +0000 SVN commit 497015 by winterz: Fix crash during a "insert file" in the composer.
