           Summary: kmail crashes when opening a (malformed?) message with

           Version: 1.13.5
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

          Priority: NOR

Mail that causes the problem

Version:           1.13.5 (using KDE 4.5.4) 
OS:                Linux

I receive many messages composed with outlook that uses tnef attachments
(winmail.dat). While I open without problems the most part of them, some are
problematic.
When I click on the message to get the preview on those messages, kmail
crashes. 
The message is stil marked as "not read" when I restart kmail.

I think that something is not correct in the body of the message, as even
thuderbird doesn't show me the content of the tnef attachment; It doesn't
crash, anyway. If I save the winmail.dat file (from tbird) and decode with the
tnef command, I get the attachments.

I don't know is it's relevant, but the message is stored on a local maildir.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Click on the message line in the incoming mail

Actual Results:  
Kmail crashes

Expected Results:  
Preview of the message

I attach here the message that causes the problem. I have more messages, but
bigger that this, that causes the problem. I can post them if needed
