Description Simon Munton 2009-07-12 20:42:36 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.4)
Compiler:          gcc 4.2.4 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

This is the same bug as I reported against KDE 3.5.3, bug number 130938. Apparently the fix for 3.5.x did not make it into KDE 4.

When kmail is getting mail from a local mailbox, and either the check mail button is pressed or the mail check interval starts a new mail check, then subsequently no more mail is downloaded from the local mailbox.

The problem is caused by both accountmanager.cpp and kmacctlocal.cpp checking if a mail check is in progress and it gets into the state where accountmanager thinks there is a mail check in progress, but kmacctlocal thinks there is not.

Patch to remove mProcessingNewMail

This patch removes the mProcessingNewMail stuff from kmacctlocal.cpp and
kmacctlocal.h as done previously in bug report 130938

It will also need applying to the 4.3.0 branch.
