           Summary: Kmail (imap connection) hangs after starting vpnc
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: oystein.olsen astro uio no


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I have one local account, one POP and one IMAP account configured in kmail.  If kmail is running when I start a vpnc connection, then the IMAP-account will hang when attempting to retrieve e-mails. It is not possible to cancel either, and kmail(kontact) must be restarted. Usually, it is only the main folder that becomes inaccessible, but sometimes all the sub-folders becomes inaccessible too.  The other accounts still work. The same problem arise when I disconnect vpnc.

I have tried to create a new user without any previous ~/.kde folder to see if the problem still exists, and it does. 

The vpnc-connection uses the option UDP Encapsulate
