I still have that bug report to do. I'm
sorry. It will get done.
Meanwhile, I have a problem. I recently did an upgrade for a client of
mine.
Debian 8.7, TDE 14 (Slávek's repositories), KMail 1.9.10. KMail was
being a bit slow downloading the emails the first time he opened it after
the upgrade. So he shut KMail down. Opened it up again. Restarted the
computer. Rinse and repeat a few times. It is now sending OK (SMTP) but
not
receiving (POP3). Ideas, please? (He also en route told it both to
store the password in KWallet and not to store the password in KWallet,
simultaneously.)
I don't have much experience with kmail+pop3, but I would try deleting the
pop3 account and configure it again. perhaps stop kmail and start again.
Also backup the local directory where pop3 mail was saved.
Given that the problem might be at least partly
due to KWallet, can I
safely
uninstall KWallet? Just reinstalling it might leave the config files the
same, and the config files could (perhaps?) be the problem.
You can also clean up the stored password in kwallet as well. it should ask
again if no password is found.
look into .xsession-errors - perhaps you find something usefull.
