A followup ...
OK the problem came back big time, within 2-3 hours of starting kmail
around 6 accounts would be locked out.

Hi Dave,
thank you for reporting.
Did you ever recognise this problem when you had only a single account?
Kmail has a progress bar on the lower side of the window. It shows the
progress of the current action that takes place (e.g. download of
emails). What's on the progress bar when kmail stops

single accounts.
The progress bar is 0% and flicks across as account are checked.

sometimes get a stuck account, the mailboxes
Can you try to stop the blocking jobs (click on the abort-button in the
info box). What happens when you do this?
Does KMail fetch mails from other accounts when you see a blocking job?
