Often, when trying to select an address from the address book, KMail crashes. I need to restart and retry several times before I can pick an address from there and send the mail. 

To this report, I attach three .txt files. Each file is a report generated by the command line, after starting Kmail from there. By doing so, I try to provide you with info from three crashes that have happened today, 7 March 2017. However it may be  I have been stumbling on this problem already a few months.

Output from Konsole generated at 15.19, after the 3rd consecutive crash of Kontact/ Kmail.

The Konsole output does not help, we need the backtrace of the crash.

If this is reproducible, please add it. For more information, please see https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
Comment 5 Geoffrey 2017-09-07 09:53:54 UTC
I have the same problem: Kmail>Compose>Select "It" starts loading my address books and then - crash - and bug report dialog box. I just added a new contact. I don't think it was happening before that.  I have a backtrace but don't see how to attach it.  Would you like me to file a separate bug report?
