SUMMARY
K-Mail crashes by selecting freshly arrived unread Mails

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. see summary

OBSERVED RESULT
My email provider is bluewin.ch (Swisscom) an I cannot exclude, That it is not
independent of this provider. But it worked with it for several years and the
problem started last fall with an update. 

If a newly arrived mail is selected, the application crashes not allways but in
the majority of the cases. If the mail is selectable without crash, it is not
deletable or access to any other way of handling, this also leads to a crash.
Is the application started again, the mail becomes accessable. Sometimes it
needs several restarts. In some cases even the operating system crashes. 

Old mails are accessible to any handling.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS I am using Arch Linux with KDE desktop and the newest
version of KDE-Plasma. As I am preparing myself to contribute to KDE, I also
have the newest versions of the QT frameworks installed.
Linux/KDE Plasma: newest available Version
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 
KDE Frameworks Version: 
Qt Version: newest Version

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
As a retired software developer and lover of Linux/KDE this behavior looks to
me like a typical no reference exception, which might be closely linked to the
OS. There must have been done some work on this bug allready as it changed its
behaviour somewhat, but it got not really fixed.
