Description Mihai DONȚU 2010-07-03 18:23:42 UTC 
Application: kontact (4.4.3)
KDE Platform Version: 4.4.4 (KDE 4.4.4) (Compiled from sources)
Qt Version: 4.6.3
Operating System: Linux 2.6.34-tuxonice x86_64
Distribution (Platform): Gentoo Packages

-- Information about the crash:
I was building a project which managed to take all the free disk space from /home. After a few seconds (or 5min max. - I think it depends on when KMail checks for mail), KMail started using 100% of my CPU and after another couple of seconds it got into disksleep and xfssyncd started taking all the CPU (I use XFS). I waited a bit and deleted a large directory I didn't use anymore, freeing ~160MB. That's when KMail crashed.

The crash can be reproduced every time.

 -- Backtrace:
Application: Kontact (kontact), signal: Segmentation fault

I had lose all my configurations of kmail after enter in "no left space on device". 
this is a serious bug
Comment 2 Laurent Montel 2015-04-12 09:55:14 UTC 
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.
