Comment 4 Ruchir Brahmbhatt 2009-04-10 12:23:43 UTC
Thanks for providing details of filters. Can you please attach few problematic mails as well?
Comment 5 Michal Vyskocil 2009-04-16 09:10:16 UTC
I switched from Kmail's filtering to Sieve scripts on server, but I tried to recheck it. But I was unable to reproduce it under current version of kmail. With a same set of filtering rules, kmail works well.

KMail
Version 1.11.2
Using KDE 4.2.2 (KDE 4.2.2) "release 1"

Comment 15 Dario Andres 2009-10-17 21:59:46 UTC
From bug 210764:
-
What I was doing when the application crashed:
I just have had a new rule in order to filter my email.  For this rule, on the
email matching this rule, there is a crash when I apply filters manually. 
Kmail don't crash on other rules.
-
I know a little more about the context. When I have added my new filter, i have
created one with the right-click on the message. But after that, I have copied
the sender and add it to an another already existant rule.
An incomplete rule was then staying at the begining of the list of rules.

This bugs exists in the current Fedora 12 kdepim package, too.

I use KMail 1.23.1 from the kdepim-4.3.3-1.fc12.i686 package. KMail crashes several times a day when it tries to apply the filters to new mails.

Here is the backtrace:

Comment 21 Dario Andres 2009-12-24 14:20:45 UTC
From bug 219926:
---
What I was doing when the application crashed:
Kmail crash randomly when filtering mail on one of my imap accounts. This
happens most the time on first start/check, but even when I manually apply all
filter to the rest of the mails in the inbox. A few crashes later I could
filter all mails and then kmail seems to stable for the rest of the day.

Comment 25 Siu Chung (Clement) Cheung 2010-06-11 23:32:32 UTC
Hi,

This crash is due to you all having a rule with no actions but having "stop processing here" to make certain emails immune to subsequent rules. (see Michal's filter #1) Kmail currently chokes on that.

I have already debugged this crash and attached a fix in bug 169646. Please see comments and attachment there for full explanation of this crash. I notice now that the bug is already closed when I posted due to lack of feedback, which is probably why nobody noticed my patch. Sorry about that. Should have searched more.

Can someone try my patch and see if it works for you and maybe have someone from the kmail team take a look? There have been so many reports of this bug already. The crash is fully reproducible. But you must have *NEW* email matching the no action rule to trigger this crash. So if you rerun kmail immediately after the crash, it no longer happens due to the mail being no longer new. This is probably why people are saying the crash is "random". To reproduce the bug consistently, simply make a no action rule matching your own email address and send an email to yourself.

As a workaround, add a sound action to your empty rule. If you find the barrage of sound annoying, simply record one second of silence and use that as your "sound".

I just defined a filter on an imap acount. Kontact crashed when an e-mail arrived. It doesn't crash always.

New crash information added by DrKonqi

Well, it always happens. The case is that I had a KDE 4.4.4 installation but it was upgraded from KDE 4.0.X to 4.4.4. I had some filters defined in kontact and it never crashed because of them. Then, I renamed the .kde directory because the configuration was messed for some applications and I started with a new .kde folder. I have configured everything but as it was expected, my old filters were forgotten. Now I've defined them again and it has started to crash, which it didn't do before.

KMail always crashes when filtering messages from an IMAP account. When applying filter manually, it crashes after going through about 10 or so messages. When receiving thousands of new messages, it always fails, but seems to get through 50-100 before it crashes. Doesn't fail on the same message twice; just applying all filters to one message at a time works fine.

Filtering IMAP messages, again. Always fails when applying the filter manually.
Again, < 100 messages to filter, crashes Kmail.

Seg fault upon applying all filters manually to less than ten messages. It's amazing how easy this is to make crash. Just select a few messages, apply all filters, and there's about a 99% chance Kmail will crash.

More crashing on filtering over IMAP. Had selected 3 messages to apply all filters to when this one happened. Makes using KMail essentially impossible.

This crash report may be useful as it occurred while applying all filters to just one message.
Perhaps less to sort through in this attached report.

kontact (4.4.7) on KDE Platform 4.5.3 (KDE 4.5.3) using Qt 4.6.3

- What I was doing when the application crashed:

Kmail / Contact was filtering a huge count of mails on a imap folder (about 8.000 mails).

Comment 44 Christophe Marin 2011-02-10 11:27:55 UTC
from bug 169646:

This bug is still happening.

kmail 1.13.2
KDE 4.4.2
linux kernel 2.6.33-gentoo-r1 (x86_64)
Gentoo packages.

Interestingly, my other setup with 32-bit linux on Sabayon Linux doesn't crash
using exact same rule. Not sure why.

Backtrace:
Thread 1 (Thread 0x7f457240c750 (LWP 11155)):

/usr/lib64/qt4/libQtCore.so.4

Liberal sprinkling of debug statements in the area reveals that the variable
"action" is pointing at 0x21, an invalid but non-zero address which passes the
mFilterAction check in actionMessage(). This causes a segfault when accessed
later.

How does that happen? Here's the current code that checks for the end of the
action list:
498      KMFilterAction *action = mFilterAction;
499     // mFilterAction = (*mFilterIt).actions()->next();
500     if ( ++mFilterActionIt == (*mFilterIt)->actions()->end() )
501     mFilterAction = 0;
502     else mFilterAction = (*mFilterActionIt);
503     action->processAsync( *mMessageIt );
504     }

The problem is we're checking if the *NEXT* action is the end. What about the
*CURRENT* one? Sure it's supposed to be already checked when we advance the
pointer there. Except that the first action isn't assigned by this iterator
advancing code. It's initialized in filterMessage():
      mFilterActionIt = (*mFilterIt)->actions()->begin();
      mFilterAction = (*mFilterActionIt);
      actionMessage();

What's happening here is that begin() == end() since the list is empty. We
didn't verify that mFilterActionIt isn't end (and therefore invalid) before
dereferencing it. Since this is an iterator, not a pointer, we won't crash --
yet. But mFilterAction will get random garbage. If said random garbage happens
to be non-zero, actionMessage() will then try to dereference it as a pointer
and hence the crash.

Suggested workaround:
As a temporary work around, people like me who need this to set a "stop
processing here" rule with no action and matching sender =
my_boss@my_company.com to make sure important messages doesn't get filtered can
assign a sound as action.

That action will have no effect except being extremely irritating when a whole
bunch of messages matching the rule arrives. This can be avoided by recording a
wav file of silence and using it as the action.

kontact (4.4.10) on KDE Platform 4.5.5 (KDE 4.5.5) "release 1" using Qt 4.6.3

- What I was doing when the application crashed: I was out of the office.  When I returned I had this crash report.  So although this crash seems to be related to IMAP filtering I wasn't doing any filtering.  The filtering that should occur when email comes in does not happen.  Is that part of the issue?  in some variation of releases the filtering was turned off or not implemented correctly. . .
