Description Roger Larsson 2012-11-30 10:14:59 UTC

Noticed that I had received some mails on my mobile (IMAP) that I had not received on Kmail.
Tried to check email several times - did not help...
- No error message

Restarted kmail
Mails showed up!

My wife had similar problems, a while ago - that time not even a restart of kmail helped...
(if I remember correctly I had to kill the background pop3 daemons)

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. No idea...
2.
3.

" No idea..." too how to test/debug it :)
I need more infos.

Comment 2 Roger Larsson 2012-12-01 22:47:55 UTC

Laurent, I have no idea myself...
To rare to debug - review?

Is there working error propagation? (errors from servers, daemon)
Is there some kind of watchdog, if pop3 daemon freezes?
How are these shown to user? (console log is not good enough)

Comment 3 Roger Larsson 2012-12-02 15:43:45 UTC

Happened to my wife again... have some traces - will add
resolved by killing 'akonadi_pop3_resource'

akonadi_pop3 reaktions to a restart of kontact

Comment 12 Roger Larsson 2013-05-21 19:46:52 UTC

happened twice again, needs to kill akonadi_pop3_resource (or logout)
Learned about akonadiconsole - will try that next time...
Note: new version 4.10.2

Comment 13 Denis Kurz 2016-09-24 18:15:51 UTC

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kmail2 (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.12 or later), it gets closed in about three months.

Comment 14 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:22:32 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.
