           Summary: kmail eats up memory when moving mails between imap
                    servers
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kmail-bug at davidwagner.de


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

when moving mails from a folder on imap server a to imap server b kmail
consumes more and more memory, I ended up with 2.6G virt mem after moving some
600MB mails (it then didn't quit cleanly, but this is not the core issue)
Seems similar to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=95461.

I really love kmail but this is a shame. I had to switch to Thunderbird to move
my mails, worked without any flaw. 

I'll be happy to provide more details if needed but this seems to be general
issue, I already had that when moving from one server to another about 1 year
ago.
