Version: Version 1.11.90 Using KDE 4.2.87 (KDE 4.2.87 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090519)) (KDEmod) (using Devel) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources Backdrop: Using kmail to connect to gmail via imap use case: Start kmail and read email - everything works just fine; put laptop to sleep; later resume; kmail no longer connects to the mail server. Quit and restart kmail - everything is good again. The behaviour of kmail is not quite a "hang". The UI still responds but the download of message headers or email to view never completes. On occations it will take a very long time to *appear* to initiate but then stop at 90%. Sometimes it will appear to complete (according to progress bar) but the actual folder contents displayed are stale and are not correctly updated until kmail is restarted. I expect each task timed out and kmail just reported it as complete. My guess (sorry) is that kmail is trying to keep its connections to the mail server open; these connections go stale connections when the network is stopped and restarted but kmail doesn't notice or correct the situation. Just a guess but that's what it feels like.
