Description Zsolt Rizsanyi 2005-02-17 11:45:23 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
Compiler:          gcc 3.3.5? standard debian package
OS:                Linux

Hi!

It occasionally occurs with my kmail, that when trying to retrieve mail from a POP account (I think always the same one, but I'm not sure), that it writes out 'unable to complete LIST operation'. This happens to me once in about a month, and I check my mail every half our on that mailbox.
If I remember correctly the same was happening to me with kmail 1.6 and maybe even earlier. I'm using kmail 1.7.1 currently.

After the 'unable to complete LIST operation' message appears in a message box, the transaction seems to linger forever. If I try to close it with the terminate button it changes its state to Aborting but the aborting is never finished. You cannot get your mail from that mailbox anymore (because one transaction is already in progress).

If you try to exit kmail it crashes. Here is the backtrace:

Note: I have found some very similar bugs: 51413, 48483 and 61226, but all of them were closed, saying that it is unreproducible. I know that it is hard to reproduce, because it happens very infrequently (and probably only when the POP3 server fails), but still it occurs with all the grave consequences.

Thanks,
Zsolt

This happens when the header is malformed. and it's quite reproductible.

Comment 3 BackFromHell 2005-11-18 13:45:12 UTC
Hello,

I have the bug on kmail 1.8.2 and more. 
It happend at each time I download my mails and I choose to delete mail from the server. If I choose to leave mails on the server I don't have the bug.

If I could find howto debug the kmail, I am agree to resolv this bug.
Comment 4 David Holland 2007-02-28 04:20:00 UTC
I can reproduce this bug every time. 
Kontact V1.1.2
KDE 3.4.2 level "b"
Kernel 2.6.13-15.8-default
Distro SUSE 10.0

This just started to occur and it will not clear.

I have mail accounts on 3 servers configured in my Kmail. Two of the 3 work fine, but the third exibits this "List operation failure -> SIGSEGV" behavior every time I try to fetch mail from that account. I used another client to retrieve mail from that server to isolate the problem. I also tried deleting and recreating the account in Kmail, but the behavior persists.
