Kmail Crashing

[Rory Gleeson]

Yes, it crashes from terminal, too, giving him a Signal 11, with crash
handler coming up.  It starts, I see it open and then it immediately
crashes.

30GB.  :)

No.  Kmail directory doesn't exist under apps:
[root at localhost apps]# ls -all
total 24
drwx------  6 root root 4096 May  3 20:51 .
drwx------  8 root root 4096 Apr 27 21:01 ..
drwx------  2 root root 4096 Apr 27 21:16 kfile

drwx------  2 root root 4096 Apr 27 21:13 konqueror

When I start Kmail from terminal, here's the output:

First time:
[rory at localhost rory]$ *** KMail got signal 11 (Crashing)
KCrash: Application 'kmail' crashing...

Backtrack: unable to create a valid backtrace

Second time I ran from root.  It crashed, saying there was a conflict
with artssound, which it then prompted me to disable when I ran it
again.  So, I can get it to open via root now, but not from the panel or
from terminal when I'm not signed in as root - it crashes with signal
11.  

Here's the output via root:

[root at localhost apps]# kmail
