Description Dave Kolars 2011-05-24 04:34:12 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #257362 +++

Version:          KMail Version 1.13.5
Using KDE Development Platform 4.4.5 (KDE 4.4.5)  
OS:                Linux

Kmail freezes, seemingly randomly for about a minute or so at a time.  Auto save turned off, no difference.  This happens while composing emails, viewing emails, anytime the program is running!  Started with upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04 and corresponding KMail upgrade.   

Reproducible: Didn't try




OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.34-12-desktop
Compiler: gcc

Hi Dave,

This bug is not going to be fixed :) Since KMail2 is on the way, no more fixing for 1st generation of KMail is going to be done, as it doesn't make sense to work on what is going to be retired quite soon.

What you are describing sounds like the the Kmail issue https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41514  is one of the key reasons why KMail2 is being redeveloped as it is.

Thanks...  I'll have to wait for 2, I guess... I used Eudora (Win) for YEARS...  I miss Eudora!!  There does not seem to be a good replacement for it, and K-Mail was as close as I could get... no embedding of graphics in the message, but most other stuff pretty close...  dk

We're all so caught up in wanting to sound different, wanting to sound original-- but we should stop trying so hard. We're all unique at birth. We'll come out sounding original without giving it a thought. (Feet Rogers)
