later I tried to copy about 2000 mails at once from an imap account to another imap account, and after about 300 mails kmail just dissapeared without opening a crash handler.

I am here on suse 10.1 and 10.2, i386.

Comment 1 Thomas McGuire 2007-03-09 12:40:58 UTC

Do any of these mails have large attachments (>5MB)?
KMail does not handle large attachments very well (it needs lots of memory for it), and your crashes look like out-of-memory conditions.

See bug #110574.

Comment 2 Sebastian Reitenbach 2007-03-09 14:33:55 UTC

Yes, I there are some mails in the bunch I tried to copy or move that contain large attachements, some much larger than >5MB.

Comment 3 Thomas McGuire 2007-03-09 14:39:22 UTC

Ok, I'll mark this as a duplicate then, since it is the same cause (large attachments use much memory)
