Hi, I have similar issues with akonadi after upgrading to Plama 6 in kde neon. Although akonadi seems to basically works, kmail is widely broken: - my gmail does not work any more - my work ews (outlook) account only fetches mails after a manual 'try connect' following authentication. Sending amil works randomly, mainly not - akonadictl fsck & akonadictl vacuum does nothin/ holds without any output thank you dom
