I've reported this problem, but the developers don't seem to care about it --
I regularly receive HTML messages and if I click on the link to render the
HTML and/or load external pictures, it will often cause KMail (Kmail 2) to
crash. Of course, since I don't have the debugging symbols loaded, it doesn't
do a darn bit of good to click on "report" especially as it seems to not want
to interface with bugs.kde.org. :(
IIRC someone said it has to do with the app that is being used to render the
HTML, but that it was hard-coded so couldn't be changed. Anyone know if this
is the case or if there's a "fix" in the works?

For giggles, if you happen to have flash-plugin installed, to uninstall
it (temporarily) if that helps?
If so, you're experiencing a flash-plugin bug (fixed in 11.2beta and newer)

Nah... thats not it. I get this happening with lots of different sources. Tech
Republic, CNET etc. It more than likely a problem that has its bases in
Konqueror. But thats just a wild guess.

Those "lots of different sources" probably all use Flash, for ads, for
illustrations or whatever. Flash bugs usually affect ALL sites with ANY
Flash on it.

Tried it Rex... External sources still crashing kmail :(
I upgraded from KMail to Kmail2 late last year. Ever since then I have had
100% crash in Kmail if I select "load external references" in a daily news-
letter I read. The crash happens when I delete the mail. If I select NOT to
"load external references" I can delete the mail without any crash.
After reading this thread I upgraded the flash plugin to 11.2 rc1. Now the
crashes seems to be a thing of the past. I have tried to provoke KMail2 with
the same mail that made it crash 100% earlier but all seems ta be fine! (touch
wood)
Thanks for the tip Rex!

This should be fixed (on the bugs.kde.org server side) now.
