I  cannot reproduce any bug where KMail crashes on messages 
of size 55KB. I doubt any such bug exists, please send a 
mail that reproduces the problem.  (I was a bit lazy and 
tested a newish KMail from  cvs rather than the old 1.2 
version).

The latest stable version of KMail is 1.3.2 if you're going 
to look for exploits I suggest focusing on that version.

The correct address to send KMail related information to is 
kmail@kde.org
