Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.5.1) OS: Linux kmail will crash if you use it with gmail imap you can add a function to imap to only download and keep the email that you have clicked its link so you dont have to use disconected imap and download all emails it is useful when people like me have slow internet connections and they dont need too download everything Reproducible: Didn't try
Backtrace ?
Just considering the wish: This is implemented in KMail 2, in the imap folder properties / retrieval / "Retrieve message bodies on demand"
