Bug ID: 298837
Severity: normal
Version: Git (master)
Priority: NOR
Assignee: kdepim-bugs@kde.org
Summary: kmail does not re-ask for SMTP password if it has been
entered wrong
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux
Reporter: msch...@gentoo.org
Hardware: Other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Component: general
Product: kmail2
When sending a mail the first time after akonadi/kmail startup I get asked to
enter my SMTP password.
When I enter the wrong password, sending the message of cource fails. But
instead of asking me again for another password, kmail tries again and again
with the first password and keeps telling me that the SMTP server would not
support PLAIN Auth, which ir wrong.
(I use PLAIN Auth via SSL on submission port 587)
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a SMTP Server that requires auth and supports PLAIN auth via submission
port 587 using SSL (mayb that error happens with other setups as well, I didi
not test)
2. Send a mail so that you will be asked for the password
3. enter a wrong password, you will noct be asked again
Actual Results:
kmail keeps trying to send the mail using wrong password
Expected Results:
should correctly detect that the password was wrong and ask the user again.
What is a bit strange here for some time now, which I should mention:
I have enabled "Save password" anywhere so kmail/akonadi should remember my
SMTP password in kwallet, but in fact it will always ask me the first time
after akonadi startup. This is not the case for my IMAP resources, there it
always uses the saved password...
