This is very interesting.

I wasn't able to find kde 3.5.7, so I decided to try version 3.5.6
I'm running it now.

Initially, I had the same failure.  I didn't even save the trace back.
Then I decided to run it again and looked at the traceback, and noticed
this interesting part.

[KCrash handler]
#9  0xb7cf0c16 in KMMsgBase::storage () from /opt/kde3/lib/libkmailprivate.so
#10 0xb7d2b101 in KMFolderImap::deleteMessage ()
   from /opt/kde3/lib/libkmailprivate.so
#11 0xb7d2b874 in KMFolderImap::removeMsg ()
   from /opt/kde3/lib/libkmailprivate.so

The interesting part is that I had disabled periodic checks for new messages.

Then it hit me  ---- Expired messages.

I have many sub-folders under my IMAP Account.  I added some expire rules.
That struck as a bit odd at the time, but I couldn't see a way to do this
using sieve.  Anyway, kontact / kmail let me do it.

Just now I went through all my sub-folders and removed all the expire rules,
and surprise, surprise I'm up and staying up. I've been up now for 2hrs and 20
minutes.  Previously, I would stay of for 5 or 10 minutes and then crash.

I'm going to re-enable periodic checks for new mail.  Manual checks work,
so I am hopefull.

I'm also hopefull that this is a clue.
