SUMMARY
Have two IMAP mail server server setups. One to my internal IMAP server and one to an external server. Today we had a service cutoff in the external internet connection and I noticed that kmail2 also set the internal IMAP server in offline mode. Verified with thunderbird that it could connect to the internal IMAP server just fine. Seems like a bug

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up internal IMAP service
2. Configure two accounts in kmail2. One to the internal server and one to an external server
3. Disconnect internet and watch the internal server getting the "offline" sign

OBSERVED RESULT
No connection to internal serv

EXPECTED RESULT
The internal and reachable server should stay online
