Version: 4.7 (using KDE 4.7.3) OS: Linux When I try to send a mail the composer stalls for a while and then displays "There were problems trying to queue the message for sending: Append failed". Restarting akonadi, kde or the whole pc did not help. The Mail is not even saved in drafts. No Error is shown but after a restart the message is gone.

Started in console akonadi will wait and after some time, when the error-msg-box is displayed, it also prints: Error during executing query "INSERT INTO PimItemTable (rev, remoteRevision, collectionId, mimeTypeId, atime, dirty, size) VALUES (:0, :1, :2, :3, :4, :5, :6)" : "Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction QMYSQL3: Unable to execute statement" Error during insertion into table "PimItemTable" "Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction QMYSQL3: Unable to execute statement" Dont know who or what is holding the lock or how to get this info.
Can confirm this behaviour with KDE 4.7.2 on OpenSuse 11.4
I am getting this: There were problems trying to queue the message for sending: Append failed after upgrading from 4.7.2 to 4.7.3 on Gentoo (akonadi-server-1.6.2) I can send 1 sometimes 2 messages then I get this error, I can logout of KDE and log back in and repeat. I am pleading for my sanity here, if there is a known patch for this please attach it to this bug. Thanks.
i found this and it helped me: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1013928 > I solved the problem by removing my Kmail Maildir in akonadiconsole and adding it again as Maildir (not Kmail Maildir).

When I tried that, all hell broke loose, and kmail crashed on startup, the maildir resource kept adding itself back, and after deleting the .local/share/akonadi directory several times and resetting up my local IMAP stuff, I'm back to square one, after sending an email I have to logout and back in to send another.
confirming this on KMail 4.7.3 on Fedora 16, 64 bit.
Also having this problem on Kmail 4.7.3, Fedora 16, 64 bit.
Also have this problem on Kmail 4.7.3, Ubuntu 11.10, 64 bit. Kmail was working fine (relatively) until 7 December, 2011 when I suddenly started getting this error.
I can confirm also this bug, after some updates in first week of december i have very slow response, folders or mails are reading naumber of minutes and sending fails with this error. Kubuntu 11.10, kmail 4.7.3, Linux (i686) release 3.0.0-14-generic....
Also encountered on OS X (Snow Leopard, macport packages), KMail 4.7.3. Everything worked well before with the same version. I had to restart my system this morning (don't know when I restarted system last time and if this was before or after the last KMail update).
This bug started affecting me on kubuntu oneiric after upgrading various packages from kde 4.7.2 to 4.7.3/4.7.3a
The problem seems to solved in KMail 4.8.0. At least for me sending mails works again.
I can confirm, new version works... 2012/1/29 Christoph Vogtländer <kdebugzilla@mockies.de> > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=285945 > > > > > > --- Comment #12 from Christoph Vogtländer <kdebugzilla mockies de> 2012-01-29 > 12:23:12 --- > The problem seems to solved in KMail 4.8.0.

this one should be fixed in 4.8.0 we put in some fixes for APPEND commands
I've just started getting "There were problems trying to queue the message for sending: Append failed" since upgrading to 4.10.4. For me however restarting kontact allows the email to be sent, but it'll start failing again "later" (measurable in minutes, not days).
