I've seen the same problem with network users with a home directory at /home/DOMAIN/USERNAME whereas for local users the problem doesn't happen. 0: akonadiserver() [0x805d566] 1: akonadiserver() [0x805d821] 2: [0xb76f8400] 3: [0xb76f8424] 4: /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(gsignal+0x4f) [0xb6dce1ef] 5: /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(abort+0x175) [0xb6dd1835] 6: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4(_Z17qt_message_output9QtMsgTypePKc+0x136) [0xb745f616] 7: akonadiserver() [0x805f9d8] 8: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4(_ZN9QIODevice5writeEPKcx+0xc9) [0xb7508e59] 9: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4(+0x112c7d) [0xb7515c7d] 10: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4(_ZN11QTextStreamD1Ev+0x3e) [0xb751f7ce] 11: akonadiserver() [0x8056b35] 12: akonadiserver() [0x8055fdb] 13: /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf3) [0xb6db94d3] 14: akonadiserver() [0x80569d1]
