unable to fetch mail (from pop server)

Actual Results:  
progress bar and detailed progress window on the lower left corner of window is showing "connecting? activity" / "preparing transmission" ... until aborted by user. Messages are not retrieved from the server.

severity: major because kmail became unusable - no data loss though.

Compiler: gcc

Comment 1 Peer Frank 2010-11-26 08:42:41 UTC

the progress bar is on the lower right hand corner of course.

Sending works fine except that displayed message size indicated in sent mail dir is not correct

Hej Peer,

I use pop3 with KMail2 on daily base and everything works fine. Could you try the current version (trunk) and check that your pop3 settings are correct?

Ciao,
Tobias
