Yes... It is a known bug... Its been sitting in kde's bugzilla for over a year..... I guess they will fix it when they get a round-to-it.


Anybody have any spare round-to-its to give them. :)

It looks like you might be on to something. I don't load the external
references automatically so I decided to go click crazy in the pattern I
usually find myself crashing Kmail and it didn't crash.

I am guessing this is a known bug, any workarounds or is it being addressed
and possibly fixed? I've got new ammo to google, thanks!

If you afre allowing the loading of external references, try disabling that.
