Which sender do you use ?
gmail smtp ?
Comment 2 Alexander Potashev 2011-10-26 20:05:28 UTC
I use Gmail/SMTP/host=smtp.gmail.com/SSL/port=465/auth=PLAIN.
Comment 3 Laurent Montel 2011-10-26 20:08:10 UTC
Could you test with an other smtp to valid that it's gmail smtp which failed and not all smtp in kmail please ?
Comment 4 Alexander Potashev 2011-10-26 20:10:33 UTC
Sending through smtp.yandex.ru doesn't work either.

Could you try with settings TLS/port=25/auth=plain?

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 7 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:13:48 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.
Comment 8 Tom Kijas 2019-02-06 11:51:26 UTC
Same thing happened now, sometimes KMail doesn't send email using properly configured GMail SMTP, email is just stuck in Outgoing folder.
KMail 5.10.1
KDE Frameworks 5.54.0
Qt 5.11.2 (sestaveno oproti 5.11.2)
Comment 9 Tom Kijas 2019-02-08 08:17:24 UTC
KDEPIM 18.12.1
KDEPIM Runtime 18.12.1
KMail package 18.12.1

Jeez, people, your email app doesn't work, whole productive world cannot use it properly, what will you do with it to keep people in?
