            Bug ID: 325717
           Summary: kmail with huge imap mailboxes leaks memory
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.11.2
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: hpj at urpla.net

After keeping kmail running for a day, it has developed this disastrous memory
footprint:

hp        3314  2.0 44.6 16129968 7357132 ?    Rl   Oct05  32:21 /usr/bin/kmail
-caption KMail

This translates to 14.5 GB virt, 7228M shared, which is a bit too much for my
taste (and my system). I have two cyrus imap servers running, and huge
mailboxes. Nevertheless, it shouldn't behave like this, and it hasn't until
4.11.2.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
keep kmail running for a day, and check memory consumption
