           Summary: kmail won't recover or quit after lost connection
                    while checking mail
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.13.5
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs@kde.org
        ReportedBy: leon.n.maurer...@alum.dartmouth.org


Version:           1.13.5 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

If my network connection is interrupted while kmail is checking mail (or even,
I think, if the connection goes down before kmail tries to check for mail), the
checks in progress will hang and not start up again even after the connection
is restored. Not even quitting kontact will stop the hung mail checks; this is
what I see after quitting kontact following a hung mail check:


leon@leon-desktop:~$ ps ax | grep kontact
16136 ?        Sl     0:37 /usr/bin/kontact
16139 ?        S      0:00 kdeinit4: kio_imap4 [kdeinit] imaps
local:/tmp/ksocket-leon/klauncherMT2229.slave-socket
local:/tmp/ksocket-leon/kontactN16136.slave-socket
16140 ?        S      0:08 kdeinit4: kio_imap4 [kdeinit] imaps
local:/tmp/ksocket-leon/klauncherMT2229.slave-socket
local:/tmp/ksocket-leon/kontactZ16136.slave-socket
16690 pts/0    S+     0:00 grep kontact

I can't start kontact again until I kill the old kontact ("kill 16136" in this
case).

This is a major annoyance; every time I put my computer to sleep with kmail
running, unplug my laptop's ethernet connection with kmail running, etc. I
either have to quit kontact preemptively or do the commandline routine I
outlined.

This might be related to bugs 224900, 113139, and/or 240350. This problem has
existed for some time; it's not some new regression.

Reproducible: Always
