Description Diederik van der Boor 2009-05-28 21:53:18 UTC 
Version:           1.11.3 (using 4.2.3 (KDE 4.2.3) "release 1", KDE:42 / openSUSE_11.1)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.27.21-0.1-pae

When an IMAP server is down, and the host just rejects the TCP connection KMail won't show this in the error message. Instead it just mentions "Unknown error", which is a bit confusing imho.
