New crash information added by DrKonqi

This most recent failure occured after update to RC2 update.   I have done fsck
on the system with badblocks check to ensure disk integrity, expired and
compacted all folders and deleted messages in the maillists that are associated
with GMail to no avail.   It will poll and even download messages for a short
while, but after a short period of time (with or without other system
activities), the error will occur, even if I am just sitting there doing
nothing except wondering how long this time....   not even moving the mouse.  
This error has persisted through 2 different kernel updates, even an update
to/from the KDE factory repository for the latest.  I have performed memory
checks lasting overnight, done badblock checks on the drives, etc.   The only
thing that makes this system 'unusual' is that I use both LVMs and RAIDs on
this system, BUT I have done so for a very long time, predating the onset of
this error.   Again, this error suddenly started after an update of my system
from openSuSE milestone 7 to RC1, and it was immediate, meaning the first error
was noticed within minutes of starting Kontact/Kmail, eg, on the first poll of
Gmail.com.   I can turn off GMail.com polls and leave the polls to the other
servers and (so far) there have been NO other failures.   If there is no mail
at Gmail.com, the error does not occur, so the poll itself does not seem to be
the cause, only the processsing of the incoming mail.   As Gmail is where the
most traffic comes from, that does increase the odds of a processing error, but
I do have one other server with high traffic (several hundred messages/24hrs)
that does not seem to trigger this failure (so far).
