I have 2 ISP accounts & I created a mail profile for the wrong one. I then deleted the 1st POP account (which is still in Kmail) & tried to create a new POP3 account. Wouldn't work, so I tried the IMAP version. I deleted some files when "deleting" the 1st Account. I now get asked for my KDE Wallet....which I have tried many times....indeed, I can't ever recall "setting up" a KDE Wallet. I am on "trainer wheels", this being my 1st foray into Linux (Linux Mint)...so it is a little owerwhelming for me at this "starting point"!! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Created POP3 account....then deleted it & 3 files/folders in that process 2.Tried to create a new POP3 Account....asks for KDE Wallet password?? I have no idea what it is 3.Then tried to setup mail account as IMAP, but keeps asking for KDE wallet password Actual Results: I'm now in a position where my "original" POP3 account details are in Kmail, and an IMAP folder & subfolders exist, but will not retrieve email. Expected Results: I had imagined, like "Outlook", that I could either "modify/create & delete" an existing POP3 account Kmail seems "broken" & unable to access email either the POP3 or IMAP accounts I did, prior to creating the 1st POP3 account, always get a "warning" : Personal Contacts : Directory home/deane/.local/share/contacts/ does not exist?
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.
