Dialog shown after every resume starting with KDE Apps 20.04
*** Bug 461400 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** The problem is not only in the fact that it does not try to connect automatically. The problem is also in the fact that it _adds_ dialog at each connection restoration. Steps to reproduce: 1. Be online in kmail 2. In plasma-nm disable the internet connection 3. In plasma-nm enable the internet connection The dialog "Mail dispatcher offline - Kmail" appears. 4. Do not answer the dialog (i.e., do not press Set Online or Cancel or close button). 5. In plasma-nm disable the internet connection 6. In plasma-nm enable the internet connection 7. The second dialog "Mail dispatcher offline - Kmail" appears. Expected result (at step 7): As there is already unanswered dialog shown, no need to create a second one. Additional note: As Bug 460819 is not yet fixed, if using wayland session and run kmail with wayland platform, the first dialog may be appeared as not dimmed, but not responding to its buttons.

Demonstration of duplicating dialogs when first was unanswered
Tumblweed appears to be affected as well, this never happened before upgrading to plasma6. If I answer "yes" to the dialog, another one pops up asking me to populate the credentials for the mailing agent, but only after a suspend/resume cycle. If I disable the wifi connection manually and then restore it, only the first prompt window appears. Furthermore, answering yes in the first dialog window always results in two "authentication failed" persistent notifications (see attachment) Created attachment 167235 [details]
Two persistent kmail notifications warning the user of a failed authentication problem
Clicking "yes" in the mailing agent offline prompt always results in these twin notifications appearing. They both say the same thing: "failed to send message. Message transport failed. Server error 5.7.8. Error: authentication failed"
