Major problems I've had in the past: * Encryption issues * IMAP issues (which could cause crashes on anything related to the storage/retrieval/moving of emails) They've been mostly fixed in 3.4 though, I think. What I *don't* think has been fixed is an annoying intolerance of a full filesystem: KMail will just die on startup if your disk is full. From the way you say that the problem is intermittent, I'm guessing it's not a full HD, unless you're somehow filling and regaining the free space often. Unless you're using IMAP, all I can suggest is to check the bug reports, and if that fails, try to narrow it down more. -- Lee.
