I have another box with 3.4.3 that I can update, and I will perhaps (!)
have the kmail/kontact crashes with the imap account. But I cannot predict
of course, so:
Before doing the upgrade, what correct action can I take to help you, in case 
this is
an unreported bug? I plan to:
- keep a copy of my complete old .kde/share/apps/kmail/imap (let's say 
imap343.tar)
- do the upgrade
- if kmail/kontact crashes then:
  - keep copy of the backtrace(s) [I remember having two different backtraces 
on the
    1st box]
  - keep copy of the new .kde/share/apps/kmail/imap (let's say imap350crash.tar)
  - delete my current ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail/imap
  - Restart kmail/kontact, so that it will regenerate my imap folder,
    and verify that there is no more any crash - tarball it to imap350ok.tar
  - redelete my current ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail/imap
  - copy back again imap343.tar to ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail/imap
  - verify it is reproducible
  - fill a bug report with links on the web for imap*.tar
- if it does not crash, mince alors...

Does it sound reasonable?

My problem is that it is not clear from bugs.kde.org if the crashes issues we 
have with
kontact/kmail starting on an 3.4.3's imap are reported.

Thanks, Cheers, JD.

PS: Why, in the backtrace, do I see often lines with no symbol? A missing 
debug-lib?
