Description András Manţia 2011-09-13 12:29:09 UTC

I have 2 POP3 resources configured and regular mail check enabled for them. If the network connection goes down (not in a sense that solid can detect, e.g the adsl connection drops, but the computer is still connected to the router), the pop3 resource displays a dialog on next mail check that it is unable to connect to the server. The problem is that it displays another one at the next scheduled mail check, even if the first dialog is still shown. And so on. If you have a longer lasting network problem, you end of with lots of dialogs from the pop3 resource.

Revert "Inform when we make a bad password (not new i18n)"

On the next mail check, the user will be asked for the password
again, since we set mAskAgain to true.
In addition, the error message is shown by AkonadiTray, like
any other error message from Akonadi.
