KMail nastiness in binary package with Sarge



There is a serious bug in KMail which comes with Debian Sarge which 
causes the loss of mail (all mail is just deleted for some reason).  
The version of KMail affected is 1.6.2.

The KMail package with KDE 3.2.2 should be patched up ASAP and the 
binary rebuilt before any more unfortunate souls who use KDE lose all 
their mail!  (If you're as lazy as I am and don't regularly backup 
your mail folders that is ... :-)

From the KMail News Page:

2004-02-05
WARNING: There are two critical bugs in KMail 1.6 (KDE 3.2) which can
