greetings!

i've just now twice tried to attach a file to a kmail message.
clicking on Attach > Attach . . ., i get the standard file selection
dialog. i scroll over to click on a directory, but when i do, i get
this error:

ASSERT: "c < nCols" in widgets/Qtableview.cpp (1629)

in the first instance, this thing looped, filling the taskbar with
itself, over and over; it took ctrl-alt-esc to stop it. the message
to which the file was to have been attached was lost when kmail was
reopened.

in the second instance, i clicked to close kmail when the error first
appeared. i got a dialog, to wit:

QPaintDevice: Cannot destroy paint device that it being painted.

when i reopened kmail, my message was there, intact, in an edit
window. i tried again to attach the file, and this time it all took
place uneventfully.

the system is an amd k6-2-400 with 256 megs ram, caldera 2.2 upgraded
to the 2.2.9 kernel, matrox g-200 vid card w/16 megs,  kmail 1.0.28
as in the 818 snapshot that compiled uneventfully but for the little
samegame lack of a define.

i don't know what the trouble is, and post it only in hope that it
will be of help to do so.
