Package: kmail Version: 4:16.04.3-1 Severity: important

Closing kmail don't affect the process itself, it remains in background. At a second start kmail window won't show. I investigated a little bit and I found older process, I did a kill and then the program started correctly.

Using strace to show what's happening once closed it reports always polling, till one doesn't exit with ctrl+c

If it can be useful I ran a debug session with valgrind and I'll attach here, it seems there are problems in the use of memory but I think it needs further analysis.

I can't reproduce the issue, let's check the easy parts first:

Do you have the system tray icon enabled? (Settings -> Configure Kmail -> Apperance -> System Tray). When enabled kmail won't exit when the window is closed, but remain running as a system tray icon, which might be hidden if there if you have no new mail. To close it, you'll need to use File -> Quit.

Even if you don't have the system tray icon enabled, could you please check if this is reproducible for you when you use File -> Quit?

Happy hacking,
