Well I havn't noticed the orphan problem but I wasn't looking either.
However; If I leave kmail open for more than about 12 hours things get real
slow. Mostly this effects my response time when using kmail only. It does't
seem to slow down anything else. I have always fixed this by closing down
kmail. When I do this my cpu usage goes to 100% for about 2 minutes and then
returns to normal. This has been a problem since mandrake 8.1.
