ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Comment 1 Trevor Pearman 2020-11-21 03:02:45 UTC

Never mind
Problem is with proxy setup in network settings ... operator error
Apologies

Comment 2 Trevor Pearman 2020-11-21 15:18:15 UTC

Actually, the problem is that setting SOCKS proxy to IPv6 address fails
It is not a kmail2 problem but a system settings problem
