Every time Kmail is restarted the pop password for my gmail account gets somehow corrupted (more asterisks than there should be in the field, if that matters) and  it does not AUTH. i have to reset it back manually, then it works for the whole session. I am not using Kwallet. Moreover there's no way I can make gmail smtp work. I tried every single permutation of port # and authentication methods. It keeps telling me that my password is wrong. Again every time I reset it to the correct value, it gets longer.

Do you think it might be a charset issue? I've been using utf8 for a while and nothing bad happened until yesterday...

Thanx
