Another info: It also happens if kmail has no internet connection at startup.

Then an error message is shown. If I confirm the message immediately, then
everything is fine as soon as a connection to the IMAP server is possible.

If I wait some minutes before clicking the error message away, the folder is
frozen.


This is an very annoying bug, because it happens quite often in my usual
"workflow":

For example, on my laptop it is often the case that I network-manager ask for a
password from kwallet for WLAN access and kmail is startup automatically. So
both WLAN configuration and kmail (also waiting for kwallet to be opened)  are
started synchronously. This results in kmail to fail, because WLAN
configuration is still in progress. Very often I start something else in
parallel, e.g. a web browser, so I ignore the error message from kmail. When I
want to access my mail later, this is not possible.
