Description Vovochka 2010-03-05 07:44:17 UTC 
Version:           1.13.1 (using 4.4.1 (KDE 4.4.1) "release 225", KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop / openSUSE_11.2)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.31.12-0.1-desktop

I have a imap account. when i downloading attachments from mails memory usage increases.

I startup kontack. It's using 20mb of memory.
I download a 15mb video file from attachment and now kontact is using 99 mb.
I select another e-mail and select mail with video attachment again -> 79 mb.
I download the same video again -> 105 mb.
Select another mail -> 84 mb.

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.
