Version: (using KDE 4.2.4) Compiler: gcc 4.2.4 OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled From Sources This is the same bug as I reported against KDE 3.5.3, bug number 130938. Apparently the fix for 3.5.x did not make it into KDE 4. When kmail is getting mail from a local mailbox, and either the check mail button is pressed or the mail check interval starts a new mail check, then subsequently no more mail is downloaded from the local mailbox. The problem is caused by both accountmanager.cpp and kmacctlocal.cpp checking if a mail check is in progress and it gets into the state where accountmanager thinks there is a mail check in progress, but kmacctlocal thinks there is not.
Created attachment 35257 [details] Patch to remove mProcessingNewMail This patch removes the mProcessingNewMail stuff from kmacctlocal.cpp and kmacctlocal.h as done previously in bug report 130938 It will also need applying to the 4.3.0 branch.
