Re: KMail segfaults
This is a known bug, with information here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=317098
A quick fix is to run kontact and click on the "mail" section. This is just
kmail running as a kpart instead of a separate application, so all your
settings and mail will be there. Interestingly, it does not crash when run
this way. (This works fine for me on my amd64 install).
