+Last night, I suddenly could not start KMail anymore.
+
+Konsole revealed this:
+
+```fish
+daniel@seppel9 ~ (main) [1]> kmail
+org.kde.pim.kmail: setFcc: collection invalid  ""
+We have an error during reading password  "Entry not found"
+*** KMail got signal 11 (Exiting)
+*** Dead letters dumped.
+KCrash: Application 'kmail' crashing... crashRecursionCounter = 2
+fish: Job 1, 'kmail' terminated by signal SIGSEGV (Address boundary error)
+````
+
+Luckily, I quickly [found a fix][1]:
+
+```fish
+rm .local/share/kmail2/autosave/*
+```
+
+Don't know what caused this problem and why KMail chokes on
+autosave files, but at least I can now start it again.
