Version: 4.8 (using Devel) OS: Linux Kmail does not send any emails. The emails stay in the Outbox folder and displays this message : Failed to get D-Bus interface of mailfilteragent. Tested on KDE 4.7.95 and 4.7.97 pre-releases of KDE 4.8. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Open Kmail. Click "New Message". Write an email, click "send". Actual Results: The email stays in the Outbox folder forever. Expected Results: Kmail should have sent the email, the person I send the email to should receive it. Dell Vostro 1500 laptop. KDE 4.7.97 on latest Chakra release (x86_64).
On latest 4.7.97, the message Failed to get D-Bus interface of mailfilteragent is not displayed anymore, but emails are still not sent.
My bad : with the latest 4.7.97, emails are actually sent. But they still stay in the Outbox folder indefinitly.
Check your identity settings (settings / configure KMail / Identities / Advanced tab) Is the "sent-mail folder" correct ?
Hi, I'm hit by this issue too. I just checked my sent-mail folder, it definitely is set correctly. This is a clean install Chakra 4.7.97-1 package. With one difference : my mails never leave the outbox and the message is still present.
Are your sure that mailfilter agent is started ? (look at with qdbus) qdbus org.freedesktop.Akonadi.Agent.akonadi_mailfilter_agent ?
The "sent mail" is correct. Now I cannot send emails again, it stays in "Outbox" and is never sent.
I tried to check Mailfilter agent in qdbus and it says it doesn't exist. What should I do ? $ qdbus org.freedesktop.Akonadi.Agent.akonadi_mailfilter_agent Service 'org.freedesktop.Akonadi.Agent.akonadi_mailfilter_agent' does not exist.
you use kdepim-runtime 4.8 ? kdepim 4.8 ? you use the same kdepim* ? akonadi is started ?
I'm using kdepim-runtime-4.7.97, all my kdepim-* are 4.7.97. Akonadi is running.
Look at in akonadiconsole if akonadi_mailfilter is started.
I don't know how to do that, I'm sorry.
If I understand this correctly akonadi_mailfilter is a new agent that is supposed to be running? In my case it doesn't even show up in the agent seletion dialog/as an enabled agent. (I started with a clean config). Will report this to the Chakra forums, to me it is beginning to sound like a packaging issue. Please confirm.
The problem is in our KDEPIM-COMMON package, please close this bug report, i'm fixing this package right now.
as you wish. closing

outbox folder is ok ?
(In reply to comment #16) > outbox folder is ok ? Yes, outbox is ok, if you mean folder in identities. I think that something happened with mail dispatcher agent in akonadi. It is started but when I tried to check queue of the agent it gave me error "blabla... .service file not found". I can not give you exact error text right now. I had to fallback to old kmail because I need to work at the moment. In few hours I'll install kmail 4.8 again and will answer your questions. Ask me if need more information. /Sorry for my English.
(In reply to comment #13) > The problem is in our KDEPIM-COMMON package, please close this bug report, > i'm fixing this package right now. What was the problem? I'm having a similar problem with the Kubuntu packages, so maybe we made the same mistake.
I'm going to note here for anyone that runs into the same variant of this issue that I did: I got this problem when I already had akonadi installed and running, and only then installed the package containing the mailfilter agent (kdepim-kmail in ArchLinux). I had to run "akonadictl restart" to get Akonadi to pick up the mailfilter agent.
I have a same problem in Kde 4.10 on arch linux .
(In reply to comment #20) > I have a same problem in Kde 4.10 on arch linux . Me too.
Actually, "akonadictl restart" fixes the problem. Thanks.
(In reply to comment #22) > Actually, "akonadictl restart" fixes the problem. Thanks. Thanks work for me
My quick fix: Remove everything from folder /home/prosiedem/.kde/share/apps/kmail2 Did work right away. Prosiedem
I just had this issue with current master...
Still happening, arch linux, kde 4.11.
> mv .kde4/share/apps/kmail2 .kde4/share/apps/kmail2.disabled Removing old kde4 settings for kmail 5 fixed this issue for me. Kudos to Prosiedem.
