Package: kmail

------
	This bug is forwarded from the Debian BTS, as it was filed on
	a Debian package.
	The original bug report can be seen at http://bugs.debian.org/115647.
	As far as I know, it is not a duplicate of any existing bug.
	If it is, I will pick this up and merge within the next 12 hours;
	Otherwise, please merge yourself.
	Thankyou, Daniel Stone <daniel@sfarc.net>, the "other"
	Debian KDE maintainer.

I ran out of disk space during a kmail session and upon attempting to send 
a composed message, kmail immediately crashed (I suspect because it was 
attempting to write to the &quot;sent-mail&quot; folder). I attempted to restart 
kmail from the console, and got:

$ kmail
trying to create local folder: No space left on device


and the program immediately exited.
Perhaps kmail should more gracefully deal with out of storage errors, or at 
least let the use know if the email was successfully sent before the write 
was attempted and the program crashed.
