Description Michael Seiwert 2005-04-12 16:42:34 UTC 
Version:           1.8 (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux
Compiler:          gcc-Version 3.3.1 (SuSE Linux) 
OS:                Linux

KMail crashes if I have ldapkio resource enabled. I can reproduce this crash if start up kmail, navigate through random imap folders and displaying random messages. After several operations it crashes. It seems not to crash if I stay in inbox. It doesn't seem to matter if the "From" is in ldap or not. Attached are the backtrace and valgrind trace.

Very good valgrind log, thanks.

==14774==    by 0x39945849: KABC::ResourceLDAPKIO::enter_loop() (in /opt/kdehead/lib/libkabc_ldapkio.so.1.0.0)
WAHHH. Using enter_loop is a very very bad idea, in case anyone still had doubts about that.

If ldapkio's loading is async, kabc should load it async, instead of having to 
emulate sync from async using the very dangerous enter_loop.
Tobias, is this possible?

Hi!

I Have the same problem. Crashing of Kmail when adding a recipient to the TO: or CC: or BCC: fields, and during the LDAP lookup.

My Kmail version is 1.12.1 on KDE 4.3.1, and the previous version had'nt this problem....
Comment 6 Søren Holm 2009-12-07 21:10:57 UTC 
For me it is fixed in 4.3.4
Comment 7 Søren Holm 2010-08-13 23:58:15 UTC 
Please close this bug.
Comment 8 Myriam Schweingruber 2012-08-19 10:55:07 UTC 
Thank you for your report. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained and the code has changed sufficiently in Kmail2 so the backtraces are not really useful anymore. Should you experience the same crash in Kmail 4.8.5 or later, please open a new report for Kmail2. Thank you for your understanding
