Bug#301001: kmail: freezes sometimes

[Wolfgang Jeltsch <wolfgang@jeltsch.net>]

Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.3.2-0pre1
Severity: important

KMail sometimes hangs for a certain amount of time (maybe about 30
seconds but it's possible that I err here).  I think, this problem
started after upgrading to this very version.  The freezes happen in
various situations - when sending an e-mail, when scrolling through a
mail message in the main window, etc., etc.  KMail doesn't crash, it's
just that I have to wait for a rather long time until KMail continuous
to work as expected again.

I don't know what other information to provide at the moment.  If you
want more, please tell me exactly what information you want and how to
provide it.
