@rysiek is that kmail or the full kontact suite?
Kmail on stock Debian with KDE works fine, I'm running it on several systems at the moment, though all have been upgraded from the previous version at least once.
I have experienced periods when it could be unstable though. I use IMAP, so can delete everything and restart my profile if I need.
@rysiek This is the reason I've stuck with Evolution since kde3, when kmail and kpim was last reliable. Such a pity it's such an unnecessarily complex thing.
We're talking segfaults here. Sigh.
At least five different components end up with exactly the same segfault:
segfault at 8 ip 000077e6076cb379 sp 00007ffeb42f53b0 error 4 in libQt6Network.so.6.8.2[b7379,77e607672000+125000]
Debian 13 (running under QubesOS), clean $HOME. Bizarre.
@rysiek Haha, lol, no. I really wanted to like the KDE PIM stack, but I gave up years ago.
The last time I tried, the crash manager would itself crash when called, resulting in "DrKonqi crash spam". Had to mark the respective binary -x to prevent 💩
@rysiek yes, used kmail since Debian Woody. Wouldn't say it's perfect but still use it for my daily email client.
@drajt interesting. I literally can't get it to even start without crashing. Huh.

@rysiek
Not Debian but openSuSE Tumbleweed (rolling), but I guess my yesterday's problem with KMail/Akonadi could be of the same reason
@rysiek
Do you need some tests?
I use Thunderbird and Nextcloud.
I can configure kmail and kontact, why not. And Korganiser too, but I remember there is some time some conflict. (Worked fine last time I used it, in Bookworm).
@lautreg I can do some tests myself, I appreciate the offer though. I was wondering if anyone actually uses KDE PIM day to day on Debian 13.
@rysiek I love the KMail user interface and gave it a shot a few months ago. Then I ran `ps` and immediately uninstalled it. If you need nine processes worth of daemons to store and read mail and contacts, I feel like a mistake has been made somewhere...
