           Summary: KMail2 IMAP accounts keep crashing and loosing email
                    content
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.7
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: otters73 at gmail.com


Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.4) 
OS:                Linux

the following is showing up for one IMAP account.

KCrash: Application 'akonadi_imap_resource' crashing...

ProcessControl: Application '/usr/bin/akonadi_imap_resource' returned with exit
code 253 (Unknown error)                                             
Database "akonadi" opened using driver "QMYSQL" 


Is this fixable or do I have to wait for 4.8?  

I will apologize right up front for saying this.  I know the developers are
working hard on many issues.  The release of KMail2 in to the wild seems to
have been premature.  Please, please, if something new say a major change of
structure (such as Kmail2) is going to be released on an unsuspecting and
trusting public do some more testing.  Don't assume anything about the end
user's skills or experience.  Please don't give the condescending remarks about
using unstable software/user beware.  The stable releases across most
distributions seem to be reporting problems so the use of unstable software is
not the issue.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Just start Kmail or Kontact.

Actual Results:  
bug crash with the following:

Executable: akonadi_imap_resource PID: 20161 Signal: Segmentation fault (11)

QSocketNotifier: Invalid socket 12 and type 'Read', disabling...
The stream parser raised an exception: Unable to read more data 
ProcessControl: Application '/usr/bin/akonadi_imap_resource' returned with exit
code 253 (Unknown error)
Database "akonadi" opened using driver "QMYSQL" 


Expected Results:  
receive email without crashes.  

Obviously very frustrated.  Just want to find some help on getting this to
work.
