Ran into this on a new machine where I had already set the hostname of the laptop but had not yet made the addition to DNS. The bug was first filed downstream in Red Hat's Bugzilla as 949903 Steps to reproduce: 1. Set up new machine and give it a hostname not yet in DNS (I used x230.pcfe.net) 2. use LDAP lookup in claws-mail Actual result: claws-mail crashes with SIGSEGV Expected result: claws-mail does not crash. Ideally it would still do LDAP lookup, even though I had a non-existing hostname set. Additional info: Please see RHBZ #949903 for more details (or tell if you would prefer I attach all files in this Bugzilla)
Does not happen anymore. Feel free to reopen if this crash occurs again.
