Bug Description

Binary package hint: kdepim

The crash occurred when I was importing my .evolution folder structure using kmails import messages function. I had started the import and things seemed to be running nicely for about 5 minutes. I then realized I wasn't receiving any mail from my IMAP account, so I started to investigate the settings I had. When I clicked the edit button in the Profiles settings list the crash occurred.

I had a lot of messages in evolution, probably several thousand. When the crash occurred I got a messages saying something like "could not open file 706, too many open files"

Hi,
Could you see if this is still a problem with KDE 4.2? The automated bug report wasn't able to get a good crash log, so if this is still a problem we'd appreciate it if you could help us get one manually. (I can give further instructions if you are still having this crash)
