I had to install install kdepim-debuginfo in addition to qt-debuginfo and 
kdelibs-debuginfo as explained here:

hm... other than the occasional crash that I mentioned, I don't have any other 
problem with it. It's been stable for me. I have a lot of IMAP folders 
(multiple servers) and local folders.
Could it be a bad configuration somewhere ? Could you try it with fresh 
configuration ? (I know it's a pain to set up everything again, but I found 
sometimes that cure problems).
