The deprecated messages probably are not related. Are you running kmail from kde-3.5 in a kde-3.4 session, or something similar? Have you got a backtrace? Can you post the output of ldd `which kmail`

kmail I'm running from KDE-3.5.2
I have exactly the same problem. Am currently emerging strace and recompiling kmail with debug to see if I can get more info. The core generated by kmail --nocrashhandler says: Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/libthread_db.so.1". Core was generated by `kmail --nocrashhandler'. Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault. #0 0xb7bd595d in ?? ()
Unfortunately, strace does not reveal anything new (at least to me) compared to the strace already submitted and emerging kmail with debug is not very usefull either: > kmail kmail: KMKernel::KMKernel kmail: No Qt-native utf-7 codec found; registering QUtf7Codec from libkdenetwork kmail: [void KMKernel::init()] foldersPath (from config): '/home/ffl/Mail' kmail: instantating KPIM::IdentityManager kmail: pPopFilter set kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel(): call to deprecated action. kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel( kacc = 0x82eb8e0 ): KAccel object already contains an action name "delete" kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel(): call to deprecated action. kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel( kacc = 0x82eb8e0 ): KAccel object already contains an action name "edit" kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel(): call to deprecated action. kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel( kacc = 0x82eb8e0 ): KAccel object already contains an action name "display_message" KCrash: Application 'kmail' crashing...

run it in gdb to get a more usable backtrace

If that helps: I have moved all previous config files and directories related to kmail from my .kde directory and started kmail. It worked. So I exited it and put back the original kmailrc and it all started fine as before. I tried to read a new mail and kmail crashed: kmail: (135104, last 135104) *** subject removed***, readyToShow true *** KMail got signal 11 (Crashing) and restarting it is as before (immediate crash). Have again moved kmailrc, restarted kmail, which worked, exited kmail, put back kmailrc and restarted kmail. So far it works. However, if I exit it (which it does with a sig 11 again), then it wont restart and have to do the above manipulation for it to work again... Anything I can test?
I have the same problem. Removing all kmail related files in .kde except kmailrc will allow me to start the program once.

Bug 134696 gives a workaround for this. Unfortunately, the workaround does not work for me, but it may work for others.... /Jakob
WORKAROUND (mainly from this forum thread: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-472187-highlight-kmail.html with inspiration from above) 1. Delete the directory .kde/share/apps/kmail 2. Start kmail 3. Remove your incoming IMAP connection 4. Create a new one of type IMAP Disconnected. 5. You may have to rightclick on it and choose Troubleshoot IMAP cache, then rebuild the cache 6. Exit kmail. It will still crash, but now it can be restarted. /Jakob

I'm guessing that if you set MALLOC_CHECK_ environment variable to 0 that will cause it to not crash anymore, though it doesn't really fix the issue.
uname -a Linux alpino 2.6.17-gentoo-r4 #1 PREEMPT Wed Aug 9 17:52:50 CEST 2006 i686 Pentium III (Coppermine) GNU/Linux Just to let you know that this bug is still biting. I moved to modular X and to kde 3.5 and ever since everything works, but kmail shows the behaviour described in this bug. I have kmail 3.5.2-r3. after a fresh emerge I can start it ONCE. upon exit it crashes and cannot be startet again. starting it from the commandline gives the error: 19:11:33 norman@alpino ~ $ kmail kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel(): call to deprecated action. kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel( kacc = 0x80689b0 ): KAccel object already contains an action name "delete" kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel(): call to deprecated action. kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel( kacc = 0x80689b0 ): KAccel object already contains an action name "edit" kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel(): call to deprecated action. kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel( kacc = 0x80689b0 ): KAccel object already contains an action name "display_message" ERROR: Communication problem with kmail, it probably crashed. I guess I just wait for the next version of kmail.
again me, now a day later and smarter. A fix similar to the one suggested by Jakob (comment 13) is working. I did the following after I found kmail not starting after I switched from kde 3.4 to 3.5: from within kde 3.5 (I already had removed everything belonging to kde 3.4 before I notice the bug) -> I moved ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail out of the way. -> now I could start kmail again. I removed all my accounts (i had IMAP) and I quit kmail. ->(Now I reemerged kmail, which may or may not be necessary), -> started kmail again and setup my accounts again (IMAP, regular IMAP and not IMAP disconnected; I just set-up the same account I had before). Ever since its working fine, as opposed to comment 13 it does not even crash on exit. hope this helps somebody Norman
Just to encourage others to try it: Norman's fix worked for me too! Thanks!!
Is this still a problem with kmail-3.5.6? Have you submitted a bug upstream?
Get back to us, see Comment #19.
I am no longer affected, although others may be. Probably the bug is gone. I use kde 3.5.5. /Jakob
In reply to #19, if you mean kmail in kde-3.5.6, I haven't tried it yet (not stable yet). The problem seems to have gone in 3.5.5.
