I might have had this problem today [KMail/1.9.6 (enterprise
0.20070907.709405), Kubuntu 7.10].
When starting either Kontact or KMail, there was an error message about my
Google Mail account which I access with IMAP:
Authorization failed, Unable to login. Probably the password is wrong.
The server imap.googlemail.com replied:
System Error (Failure) authentication not supported
Clicking OK (the only option in this box) brought up a dialog asking for
username and password. I then entered my password (I'm pretty sure it was
correct) and clicked OK, but this only made the "Authorization failed" box
appear again. I repeated this a few times without success and finally decided
to click "Cancel". This caused KMail/Kontact to hang and use 100% of the CPU
(reproducibly), so I had to kill it manually. I managed to get a few backtraces
by sending the process the SIGSEV signal, I could attach one if anyone thinks
it's useful.
After some time, the problem disappeared. I guess it was a temporary problem
with the mail server, but I think KMail should give the user some way to get
out of this "Authorization failed" thing (e.g., if he wants to check some other
mail accounts that still work).
If this bug is the same thing that I experienced, it is not a duplicate of bug
109036 (in this bug, the dialog box pops up over and over again, but KMail does
not hang).
