Added the backtrace to the bug report.

The original crasher didn't affect our patched Qt, but they replaced the qDeleteAll with a handwritten loop in an attempt to fix that crash, and I guess the loop now does crash. :-/
The fix for the fix: http://commits.kde.org/kdepimlibs/fbd983ae6ab38bc904b5f598250901f7664e8a47 (which I think is also only a workaround – I think the real bug must be elsewhere).
See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=289693#c7 .

Well, kmail hung on deleting emails (although I could still view emails in other inboxes, just no tthe one in which the deleted emails were) and when I closed the program there as a crash popup notification.
I installed the new updates and haven't had it recur yet.

It just crashed again :-( but I haven't logged out and back in. Perhaps that is it?

OK, seems the invalid pointer errors won't go away by rejig'ing how to free the qList in question.
Good news is that 4.8rc1 was *supposed* to drop the MALLOC_CHECK_ stuff from /usr/bin/startkde, but didn't. AND.... doing so makes this hard-crash go away (even though free'ing invalid pointers is still bad of course).
kdebase-workspace-4.7.95-2 building, and on the way to repos soon.

This morning I updated these and there associated packages: qt-4.8.0-5.fc16.x86_64 kdebase-workspace-4.7.95-2.fc16.x86_64 kdepimlibs-4.7.95-2.fc16.x86_64
And Kmail2 still crashes, however in #289693 it is marked as fixed in 4.8
There are other issues with mail disappearing, empty folders that show un-read mail, deleting mail does not remove the message. Thankfully I can use akonadi console to resolve this.
I have seen reports of these and will try and compile a bug # list. These new issues I had not seen in 4.7.90, but that is part of the testing :-)

That's the patch we applied to kdepimlibs-4.7.95-2 , doesn't seem to help any (for me).
It's fairly obvious by now the qList is getting corrupted somehow, so efforts to change how it's items are free'd essentially don't help much at this point.

I was not sure if it was the same patch, fyi it does not help here either.

OK, I'll keep an eye on kde.bugs, maybe a comment and new back trace could be added to #289831 (which is marked as fixed) saying that the crash still happens.

Hi,
Today for me too, Kmail2 crashed as described above. The crash happened after I had removed some email messages. Kmail2 got really lost. Header info and message bodies were mixed up, sometimes kmail2 hung up or crashed. So I think the problem - as Kevin already said - is not in the destroy methode (c.q. qDeleteAll), but is somewhere in the manipulating (creation/removing) methodes of the qList.
Hope this test case (removing mail) can help.

BTW. Tried deleting mails in kmail 4.7.4 (fedora 16) and this works fine So a commit somewhere after the release of kde 4.7.4. introduced the trouble.

One thing I have been trying to avoid the crash is closing Kontact is via the system activity and ending the process, not ideal but seems to work.

Hi,
May be commit [1] causes the crashes in kdepimlibs-4.7.95-1(2). The next commit [2] reverts commit 1, but isn't in 4.7.95-1(2). Allen Winter says about these commits:
"Revert "Add a bunch of validity checks to avoid crashes."
This reverts commit baa76292fbbe4918a630203269e0822905db3503.
I think I might have broken some things with this commit so I'm reverting it so I can test further."

Hi,
As I hoped (and a little bid expected :-)) kmail 4.8 rc2 (4.7.97) doesn't crash for me. I can delete messages without a problem.
Thanks for the good work|
