           Summary: mail can no longer be deleted in outbox if
                    authentication type wrong
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: dev staerk de


Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

If I have the "Authentication Method" set to GSSAPI, write a mail, get the error that the mail server does not support this authentication mode and try to delete the mail from the outbox, it is not possible.

Steps to reproduce:
- install an SMTP server that supports authentication, but not GSSAPI. An example is the default installation of postfix.
- choose kmail -> Settings -> Configure kmail -> Accounts -> Sending
- Add or modify one, choose Advanced -> Authentication Method = GSSAPI 
- Send an email over this account. You get an error message.
- try to delete this mail from the outbox

expected result: 
- the mail gets deleted

actual result: 
- the mail does not get deleted
