Kmail crashes when asked to print

[robinm]

I have a strange problem with Kmail, if I try and print any emai, it brings up the print dialogue box OK but as soon as I click on print, kmail crashes. It brings up a crash handler box that says pid 7988 signal :11 segmentation fault.
I am running 2010, KDE 4.5.3 and am fully updated. Any advice on this one?
It is only affecting Kmail, the other modules with kontact appear to print fine, as does Konq and firefox.

You may be fully updated, but the kdepim4 packages are not. They are still lagging behind at version 4.4.5. I used kmail for over ten years, but after updating KDE to 4.5 I had to find another mail program. A bit ironic as the pim packages was one of the reasons I had stayed with KDE.

Try printing with a fixed font. I think I have been down this road.

Hey, thanks. That fixed it.
