Package: kmail
Version: 4:2.2.2-14
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss
Open kmail and do a pop3 run on your mailbox. Now, with either a digest
form or other multiply embedded gpg signature carrying email, attempt to
highlight that email. kmail will go directly to GPG batch mode for decryption,
then lock up it's entire interface. In these instances it would cause total
and complete lack of response to any keyboard or mouse interactions also causing
it to fail to refresh itself on the screen. Next, you will have to use either
ksysguard or other means to kill it. Upon the next pop3 run, after
restarting kmail, kmail will have duplicated mails for every email it
grabbed during the last run, OR **IMPORTANT** OR it _deletes_ them!!
I am using UIDLs. I do not know if this is because kmail is not updating the
UIDL list before attempting batch key decryptions or if it's doing so but
failing to
compare the UIDL list with the mail server on the next run because it
thinks those emails were previously saved or, in the case of the
deletions, it thinks they were marked for deletion and therefore informs
the mail server to delete them there as well. It's a little confusing as
to which one it's doing since it flip flops. But it is consistent in the
treatment if not the manner in which it treats them. (AKA I may not know that if
I do the above steps repeatedly whether I'll be either out of mail or have dupes
and triplicates of all my mail, but I know it'll screw up in either of
the two ways.)
Because of the data loss (emails) either through kmail deleting it, or
me because I'm unsure of which ones are the original emails, (it also
likes to jumble the threads when it does this as well) I have marked
this as grave.
