I think I have narrowed down the problem. Akregator seems to be the cause. After a hard crash of my computer, Kontact would refuse to start again (crash at launch). I found that KMail could start standalone, but not Akregator. When I removed the ~/.kde/share/apps/akregator folder, Kontact would start again normally and never crash again. But when I started to use Akregator again, starting from a new clean configuration, Kontact started to crash again at random, every once in a while. Perhaps the crash is caused by an RSS feed that Akregator doesn't like. But as I have many RSS feeds, it will take time to find which one is the problem. In any case, Akregator shouldn't react to a bad RSS feed by crashing, obviously... and taking the whole Kontact with it. I forgot to mention that since comment #1, I upgraded to OpenSUSE 10.1 and KDE 3.5.2. Even starting everything from a clean configuration (I didn't reuse my old .kde folder), the problem was still there. Created attachment 16254 [details]
