           Summary: receive accounts are deleted if kontact/kmail is killed
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: sven.burmeister at gmx.net


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I have 3 receive accounts. If I open kontact (or it is started when logging
in), kmail asks for access to kwallet.

If you wait long enough, it will open dialogues asking for username (filled in
already) and password.

Cancel each of those dialogues.

Allow kmail access to kwallet, i.e. click on "allow once" in the respective
dialogue.

Go to File > Quit

Kmail tells you that it does not have access to kwallet and whether it should
store the password in a file. this is wrong in to ways. First, since you just
allowed access to kwallet, it seems that kmail does not re-check whether it
does or does not have access to kwallet. Second, if it could not get the
passwords from kwallet, there is nothing to store to the config files.

Now press CTRL+ALT+ESC and click on the dialogue described above in order to
kill kmail.

Re-open kontact and kmail will prompt for your first receive account's username
and password, both blank.

If you have a look at the account settings, all receive accounts but the first
are completely gone. The first one only has its name but no server or any other
settings.

Expected behaviour: do not remove existing information from kmailrc in case of
crash/kill.
