            Bug ID: 461653
           Summary: kmail doesn't send when running over ssh
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.19.3
          Platform: OpenSUSE
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: bugz57 at top.geek.nz
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When starting kmail over ssh on a remote host, kmail doesn't send any mail, it
asks for the transport password instead. This is at least when there still is a
local KDE desktop session running on the remote host, even when kmail and
akonadi are not running.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Log into host A, KDE desktop session.
2. Start kmail.
3. Quit kmail, stop akonadi.
4. Log into host B, KDE desktop session.
5. ssh from B to A.
6. Start kmail on A, compose mail, send.
6b. pkill kwallet; Start kmail on A, compose mail, send (no difference; kmail
may or may not ask for the wallet password, but even if it does, it still asks
for the transport password when sending).


OBSERVED RESULT
kmail asks for the password for the mailtransport.


EXPECTED RESULT
Mail is sent without more pop-ups, the mailtransport password is already saved
in the wallet.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
kmail Version 5.19.3 (21.12.3)
openSUSE Leap 15.4
kded-5.90.0-150400.1.4.x86_64
Qt Version: 
Name        : libQt5Core5
Version     : 5.15.2+kde294
Release     : 150400.6.3.1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This used to work fine on openSUSE 12.3, kmail 4.10.5; kmail didn't even have
to be quit, only akonadi had to be stopped.
