Noticed that I had received some mails on my mobile (IMAP) that I had not received on Kmail. Tried to check email several times - did not help... - No error message Restarted kmail Mails showed up! My wife had similar problems, a while ago - that time not even a restart of kmail helped... (if I remember correctly I had to kill the background pop3 daemons) Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. No idea... 2. 3.
" No idea..." too how to test/debug it :) I need more infos.
Laurent, I have no idea myself... To rare to debug - review? Is there working error propagation? (errors from servers, daemon) Is there some kind of watchdog, if pop3 daemon freezes? How are these shown to user? (console log is not good enough)
Happened to my wife again... have some traces - will add resolved by killing 'akonadi_pop3_resource'

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.
