Version: 4.7 (using KDE 4.7.2) OS: Linux When trying to access my email which is stored using Microsoft's cloud services kmail frequently refuses to download email and just displays 'Retrieving Folder Contents Please wait...' This is especially a problem for me since I use several filters to move emails for certain mailing lists into their appropriate folders. Often selecting another email will cause the new email to load and selecting the previously hung email will allow it to load. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: Start selecting IMAP emails. Actual Results: Frequently it will hang and not recover when attempting to download an email. Expected Results: It should not hang. The previous version of kmail included with KDE 4.6 did not have this problem. OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.1.0-1.2-desktop Compiler: gcc
same here. Using Ubuntu Oneiric with KDE 4.7.4 from Ubuntu Repos. Killing Kontact and restarting it helps for several minutes, then its the same again.
i've been running into this for probably even years now. akanodictl restart fixes it.
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.
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.
