Version: 1.9.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux To reproduce this bug: * configure kmail to ask you in case of a Message Disposition Notification (MDN) request * configure it to mark displayed messages as read after being displayed 3 seconds * right-click in the message list on a message which contains a MDN request and has not been displayed before. At first the context menu will open, after 3 seconds the popup window appears (I suppose that the english version will show the three options "send", "ignore", "deny") - and now the X server is litterally unusable: I can just move the mouse, but neither mouse clicks nor pressed keys show any effect. Not even Alt-Ctrl-Esc (to kill kmail) works; I am just able to kill the X-Server by pressing Alt-Ctrl-Back or to switch to a console (e.g. by Alt-Ctrl-2) in order to kill kmail from there. - At first I thought this bug to be similar to bug 98390, but situation and effect are different. More than once it happened to me to leave all marks of my mails which is a severe denial of service for my work ... I have experienced the the bug on a SuSE 10.1 with kmail 1.9.1 (KDE 3.5.1) and confirmed it on a SuSE 10.2 with kmail 1.9.5 (KDE 3.5.5). As a workaround one may configure kmail to mark mails as read without any delay (or to ignore MDNs).
Might be related to bug 111786.
works in KDE 4.3.0 without problem.
Bug is obviously fixed: the MDN confirm window will not pop up before the time for "mark as read" is over. My version: 1.10.3 [4.1.3 (KDE 4.1.3) "release 4.10.4"]
