          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR

        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org

I'm attaching a small 5-second strace where kmail is absurdly statting and accessing /usr/share/* a bunch of .mo message files for no reason while retrieving local mail from /var/mail/username.

Kmail freezes completely during that local mail check.
