I didn't do any update or anything. This bug hit me out of the blue after
restarting the machine (like I do every day (green IT :)). IMHO it has to do
with kmail's notorious weaknesses in the I/O area. If I start off with the
splash (local folder) kmail has normal behavior. As soon as I want to open
inbox or sent-mail or some other mailbox, kmail starts using 95-100% cpu and
becomes extremely slow without crashing. Even erasing the index-files did not
have any effect. It has already destroyed my flags anyway (for the n-th time)
While the rest of kontact is really great, kmail still lacks hugely lacks
stability and reliability.
