Kmail and Kontact instability
I am running Suse 10.0 (x86, 32 bit version). I recently upgraded to KDE 3.5, and Kmail and kontact crash repeatedly. I began this message with Kmail 1.9, but it crashed before I could finish it. i am using Thunderbird to post this message. I like Thunderbird, but I would prefer to use Kontact as I like the integrated interface with the contacts, calendar, and to do list. I have already deleted the old .kde directory in my home directory, but that didn't help. I am not sure it makes a difference, but I am using Kmail as an IMAP client, not a Pop client. Please note that I was not using KMail under kde 3.4, as previous versions of KMail did not let you filter IMAP mail into IMAP folders, only into local folders. The version of KMail with kde 3.5, version 1.9, does allow you to filter IMAP mail into IMAP folders. For this reason I am interested in getting Kontact working. I have googled for kontact problems kde 3.5, but found nothing. Is anyone using Kontact under kde 3.5 with KMail as an IMAP client. Mike -- Michael A.

I think that kmail is not as good as with kde-3.4, especially the imap behaviour is not really good. Sometimes it starts to download messages from the server again :( There are quite some bug reports on kmail (kde-3.5) on bugs.kde.org. And indeed I had a kontact crash today, while using pop that I did not see before :(

Install (smart)sieve, and you have a server side filter, that's really convenient :))
