Description Elan Ruusamäe 2008-12-07 23:09:39 UTC

Version:           1.10.90 (using 4.1.81 (KDE 4.1.81 (KDE 4.2 >= 20081128)), compiled sources)
Compiler:          x86_64-pld-linux-gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27.7-2

kontact, kmail, when launched will loop forever (until killed or dies itself with segfault) creating similar files in ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail/dimap/.*.directory/.INBOX.directory/Contacts/cur

Contacts$ find  cur/ -size 516c | wc -l
9696

the files look all the same, containing either quiz or widgetadmin as name:

this is also maybe worthful information (that the items are duplicate):

01:44:00 glen[load: 0.04]@haarber Contacts/cur$ grep -r FN:won2 .
./1228687469.27585.ioW1S:2,S:FN:won2

Hi Elan. Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. It would be very helpful if you could provide more information on how it happens, specifically:

- Are you able to reproduce this bug? If so, can you tell us the exact steps you take to reproduce it.

- Was it the first time you used KMail, or had you used it for something before this bug happened?

Comment 3 Elan Ruusamäe 2009-01-29 18:01:44 UTC

i was using kmail earlier from kde3.5, about reproducing it's so many time passed i'm not sure if i'm able to reproduce. i'll try it however at some time.

currently my kmail crashes on opening inbox, need to resolve that first :)

Comment 4 Dominik Tritscher 2009-03-15 14:51:57 UTC

I can't see a way to reproduce that bug without further instructions. I think we should close that bug for now.

This was a bug in the Kolab plugin (Addressbook on IMAP server) introduced by me when fixing the distribution list duplication.

Fixed in http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=911381 in trunk and http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=911384 in 4.2 branch
