Bug Description

Binary package hint: kcheckgmail

The application kcheckgmail seems to be logging enormous amounts of information to the file .xsession-errors. This causes the file to become very large and thus difficult to read if one is looking for other information. For instance mine is 134846 lines long and almost every line is from kcheckgmail.

To reproduce it, I think one only has to install kcheckmail and it will start filling up the file!

The file is 22821 lines. Over half of this is from kcheckgmail.
