Version: 1.9.52 (using 4.00.83 (KDE 4.0.83 (KDE 4.1 Beta2), Kubuntu packages) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-19-386 I'm using Kmail 1.9.52 with a Gmail account configured. I'm trying to access it over Imap, but sometimes it connects, sometimes it doesn't. And when it connects, sometimes the connection breaks and I have to retry. When I finally was able to retrieve my emails, I read them and I closed Kmail. Then, when I executed the application again, it started to retrieve the headers all over again. With a disconnected imap account, it stops retrieving the emails at 33%. I don't have the debug version, but I can leave the information that appears when I run Kmail from Konsole: kmail(6394) KMail::lockOrDie: oldPid= -1 kmail(6394) KMKernel::KMKernel: kmail(6394) KWallet::Wallet::openWallet: Pass a valid window to KWallet::Wallet::openWallet(). kmail(6394) KMKernel::init: foldersPath (from config): "/home/brunomiguel/.kde4/share/apps/kmail/mail" kmail(6394) KMKernel::identityManager: kmail(6394) KMFilterMgr::KMFilterMgr: pPopFilter set kmail(6394) KWallet::Wallet::openWallet: Pass a valid window to KWallet::Wallet::openWallet(). kmail(6394) KMailApplication::newInstance: kmail(6394) KMKernel::openReader: brunomiguel@lunix-bruno:~$ kmail(6394) KMail::Vacation::Vacation: Vacation: found url " "" " kmail(6394) KMail::AccountManager::processNextCheck: processNextCheck,remaining 1 kmail(6394) KMail::NetworkAccount::mailCheckCanProceed: for host "imap.gmail.com" current connections= 0 and limit is 0 kmail(6394) KMail::NetworkAccount::mailCheckCanProceed: connection limit reached: false kmail(6394) KMail::AccountManager::processNextCheck: processing next mail check for "Gmail.com" kmail(6394) KMail::NetworkAccount::setCheckingMail: check mail started- connections for host "imap.gmail.com" now is 1 kmail(6394) KMFolderCachedImap::listNamespaces: listNamespaces ("inbox") kmail(6394) KMFolderCachedImap::listNamespaces: listNamespaces () kmail(6394) KMail::ImapAccountBase::slotCapabilitiesResult: capabilities: ("imap4rev1", "unselect", "idle", "namespace", "quota", "xlist", "children", "xyzzy") kmail(6394) KMFolderCachedImap::serverSyncInternal: Setting test attribute on folder: "Gmail.com/[Gmail]" kmail(6394) KMFolderCachedImap::serverSyncInternal: Setting test attribute to KUrl("imaps://brunoalexandremiguel%40gmail.com@imap.gmail.com:993/[Gmail]/") kmail(6394) KMail::AnnotationJobs::MultiSetAnnotationJob::slotStart: setting annotation "/vendor/kolab/folder-test" "value.shared" "true" kmail(6394) KMFolderCachedImap::slotTestAnnotationResult: Test Annotation was not passed, disabling annotation support kmail(6394) KMFolderCachedImap::reloadUidMap: Reloading Uid Map kmail(6394) KMFolderCachedImap::slotGetMessagesData: Resizing to: 16409 kmail(6394) KMFolderCachedImap::slotGetMessagesData: Resizing to: 65537
I also use GMail over IMAP, and it works fine for me. Have you got network problems? When you say "sometimes it doesn't connect", do you get error messages?
No network problems. Everything network related is working fine. When I say it doesn't connect, I mean it doesn't retrieve the emails, although I have a perfectly working internet access.
I can confirm bug. KMail is stopping working on some GMail IMAP folders. Also often it shows incorrect mail download progress (like "-1%") and doesn't open folder. If I click button “show detailed progress window” it open box with labels “Checking account: XXXXX.com” and “XXXXX.com/folder-name completed” but progress bar shows something like ”59%” and doesn't change. I have to restart KMail to access those folders. KMail 1.9.9 on KDE 3.5.9 Debian Lenny
Confirm this behaviour on 4.2.2 (Kubuntu). It appears to be related to the sheer number of folders that you have in Google IMAP due to the labels being in the root. If you right-click all the labels and choose properties, and uncheck 'include in mail check..' and 'act on...' it resolves the problem for me, at least insofar as the Inbox.
Can you recheck again? Several Gmail bugs and IMAP bugs have been since KDE 4.2.2
Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this version of Kmail has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug. Please try using the latest version of Kmail to see if your issue persists. If it does, please submit a new bug in "kmail2". Thank you!
