I frequently notice that kmail starts flooding ~/.xsession-errors at a rate of 1 MB/s. I'm using disconnected IMAP accounts.

The messages say:
  kio (KIOConnection): ERROR: Could not write data

The flooding continues until the disk is full. I had over two gigabytes of these messages recently. Shutting down kmail and killing all the kio_imap4 processes stopped the spamming.
