Description Rafał Rzepecki 2005-05-01 16:34:13 UTC 
Version:           1.8 (using KDE 3.4.0, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.3-20050110 (Gentoo Hardened Linux 3.4.3.20050110, ssp-3.4.3.20050110-0, pie-8.7.7)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.9-gentoo-r9

I have an Outlook Express mailbox that poses a problem when importing. Not only some messages are left unimported --- they are being silently discarded!

It looks as if the importer was dying on an ill-formed (or maybe just unexpected, as the format is reverse-engineered, I suppose) message and dropping all the messages that follow. The outcome is that I only have in KMail messages up to a certain point in time.

Unfortunately I cannot pinpoint the exact cause, and I'm unable to prepare a public testcase. As the mailbox in question may contain some sensitive information, please request its URI from me in private.

Thanks for your help in solving my problem.
