As for the crash: Did you exactly press  "Back/Next/Back/Next/Back/Next"? in 
this order and multiple times?

I think Dan has been aware of it for a longer time. It should be reproducible 
all the time. Everytime you get a dialog that is asking for a password, all 
resources are blocked as long as the password (authentication) dialog is open.

This is really strange. I can reproduce it in 100% of the cases, with no 
special settings. Fresh install. How many connections do you have? Make sure 
you are disconnected from ALL connections during akonadi startup, and make 
sure kmail is closed all the time, check the status of the resources in system 
settings.
