Version:           1.13.3
OS:                Linux

It keeps fetching some of the same mails very time.
And quite often, it fails and gives the error message as --
could not read file invalid response from server ". ".

What is `".` ?

I was a long time user of kmail, but these two bugs are tooooo annonying...
I am thinking of using some other mail client....


Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
Randomly but with high frequency

This happens to me as well with a POP account of the German Free-mailer GMX. 

No troubles with my IMAP accounts.

Kubuntu 10.04
KDE 4.4.90 (KDE 4.5 RC1)
Kontact Version 4.4.5
KMail 1.13.5

maybe caused by overlapping-memcpy in pop3 kioslave. See patch in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=230072

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5 and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2.

We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give your feedback.
