Description Bram Schoenmakers 2005-01-10 17:56:11 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc 3.3.4 20040623 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.4-r1, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6)
OS:                Linux

When I create a new main window in Kontact, there are two KMail icons in the systray telling me how many unread mails I have. It disappears as soon as I close the extra window.

Does this still happen?

'm using KDE 3.5.5. Same bug... But it's crashing not only disappering...

But it's only a fresh start of PC... After first crash, it does not happen again, until reboot...

Some time I loose Mail Meta Data... Perhaps Mails, too? I don't know...

Comment 4 Gehold Bertin 2006-11-30 00:30:10 UTC

But, if the "duplicates" (bugs) are really duplicates? I don't think so...

I've crashing of whole kontakt...

How do you do that

Comment 7 George Kiagiadakis 2008-09-29 00:20:00 UTC

This is still reproducable in svn trunk r865463. Of course, it's not possible to start a new kmail window from kontact, so I assume Bram means kmail.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Start kmail, enable systray icon.
2) go to File->new->new window
3) Now there are two windows of kmail and two system tray icons.

Valid in KMail2 but I'm not sure this should be considered a bug.

Comment 9 Laurent Montel 2012-10-16 07:23:21 UTC

Fixed in 4.10
