No, your last two messages were to me only.  I think you're using 
Outlook, and I'm pretty sure it will give you a choice of replying just 
to the sender, or to 'All'.  Alternatively, when you've created your 
reply, at the top there will be boxes to specify 'To', ,'CC', etc. just 
make sure one of those includes
kmymoney-devel at kde.org.  I don't need an individual reply as I'll see 
the list reply, unless you want it not to be public.

Yes, I agree.  But we can't stop it crashing unless we know the cause.

I'm still investigating.

I think that may be a problem - program cannot create that tmp file without permissions it doesn’t have or maybe it is trying to create that file in directory that doesn't exist?

I accepted the notification and then got the screen from stooq, giving information on my not-so-fictional stock symbol (ccc).
