Description Dima Ryazanov 2011-11-18 19:54:24 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.3) 
OS:                Linux

Every time I log in, I get a notification:
"Mail Dispatcher Agent: Could not access the outbox folder (Unknown error. (Failed to fetch the resource collection.))."

I have no idea what it means or what I'm supposed to do about it.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Start KDE.

Actual Results:  
The notification appears.

Expected Results:  
KDE shouldn't display notifications unless they actually mean something to the user.

same here - I haven't configured kmail or other PIM as I use gmail via web. I have installed gmail-plasmoid notifier widget.

Comment 2 Tapani Tarvainen 2012-04-01 04:40:25 UTC

Same here. Disabling akonadi server makes the message go away, but I'd like to know what that message actually means - what exactly triggers it.

This bug has only been reported for versions older than KDEPIM 4.14 (at most akonadi-1.3). Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a recent version of akonadi (part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.

Comment 4 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:31:02 UTC

Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
