[Bug 127696] [PATCH] "Unable to complete LIST" operation with invalid messages on server
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127696 sac62 charter net changed: What|Removed |Added CC||[EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Comment #31 from sac62 charter net 2008-08-24 18:31:18 --- Interesting. I was trying to figure out why this problem seemed intermittent. I have KMail set not to DL messages from the server so if I make a mistake and delete a message I wanted to keep I can retrieve it. I now realize that my behavior of going directly to my mail server and going through my mail deleting unwanted crap it would solve the problem and KMail would work again. I do not have enough knowledge and understanding of how to apply the patch provided here. I have for many years wanted to use linux but could never understand it enough to make it work. With the development of PC-BSD though I am now allmost a full time user of that OS. I love it and all that comes with it. I must admit I still have to run Windows from time to time when needing print and scan because I still can't get those applications working. May I suggest that the patch be developed for PC-BSD as a PBI for us newbies?

Thanks for reminding my. I thought I had backported a week ago, but apparently the commit failed for some reason. I've now backported it to the enterprise branch in rev. 775015. It is to late for 3.5.9 though, which is already tagged. Sorry :( The diff should apply to the 3.5 branch without problems if you want to manually include it in the release. ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs

Went to the server to check each email address and both times it was one or two spam emails. That were left on the servers. Like this morning, Kmail downloaded several emails and then gave me the LIST error. I found the same two spam in two email addresses, no ham present they had been downloaded via Kmail. Deleted both emails in each address and checked server with Kmail again and didn't get any errors. If/when this happens again I could get the email source of each one before deleting to see which one it is. Going to try that next time, will post it if anyone thinks it might help. ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs

It cant be that a malformated header forces a mail client to manually delete the message (e.g. via webmail) and restart the client... just my humble opinion... ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs

--- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127696 mcmanus ducksong com changed: What|Removed |Added CC||mcmanus ducksong com --- Additional Comments From mcmanus ducksong com 2008-01-16 22:51 --- The issue here is error handling when receiving a blank uid prortion of a UIDL response.. for instance: 1 1200413730.1[CRLF] 2 [CRLF] 3 1200414111.3[CRLF] . [CRLF] will trigger it. John's debug data from the original bug description shows this nicely. it seems some pop server will generate a bogus uidl response like the above based on the email containing an invalid message-id header. I only tested with Dovecot, and could not reproduce that behavior, but forcing the protocol trace with netcat using the above sequence did create a reproduction. If any of the reporters could identify the pop server that is doing that, we could potentially file a bug against the server which is really the root cause here too. In any event, without a valid UIDL identifier the message cannot be persisted on the server - otherwise, everytime a LIST operation occurred there would be no way to know whether or not there was a local copy of this message and we would keep downloading it over and over again. The attached patch * separates error handling for LIST and UIDL operations (removing the confusing error dialog here that casts doubt on LIST un-necessarily) * takes UIDL lines with an ID but without a valid UID portion and forces a download of those messages and a delete from the server * logs a debug message when it is doing this ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs

Rebuilt packages on Kubuntu 7.10. Results so far excellent. Thunderbird
conversion averted, at least for now. Here are the steps:
Using: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/20
apt-get source kmail
apt-get build-dep kmail
Then I edited kdepim-3.5.7enterprise20070926/kmail/popaccount.cpp
as illustrated as above, removing debug output statements:
964 else {
965 if( stage == List ){
966 stage = Idle;
967 if (job) job->kill();
968 job = 0;
969 mSlave = 0;
970 KMessageBox::error(0, i18n( "Unable to complete LIST operation." ),
971 i18n("Invalid Response From Server"));
972 return;
973 }
974 }
975 }
cd kdepim-3.5.7enterprise20070926
debuild -us -uc
cd ..
sudo dpkg --install kdepim-3.5.7enterprise20070926.deb
