           Summary: not retrieving email from pop3 server
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: intel4004u+kdebug at gmail.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Okay here goes pls bear with me as I am a Linux novice. I have installed the
Kontact package in Ubuntu 8.04.

Ubuntu 8.04 (tried 9.04 and didn't get on with it)
Kontact Rel 3.5.10
Kmail Rel 1.9.10

In my synaptic package manager which I used to download and install kontact its
telling me I've got the latest version and lists it as 4:3.5.10, anyone know
what the prefixed "4" is for, am assuming this means I've actually got 3.5.10
installed. When i originally tried to file this bug it wouldn't let me when i
stated I was using a version earlier than 4. But when i go to the "Stable
version Getting KDE" page and select the 4.3 link there are no choices for
Ubuntu.

There is kubuntu 9.0.4 but I don't believe I can use this or the Debian
packages (which are stated as being unstable!!). What do I do as I seem to be
in a bind?

Or do I just give up and use thunderbird.


The problem I am having is suddenly kmail is not downloading from my Gmail
account any new emails which come in. It seemed to be working fine a few days
ago. There are no error messages it just reports there was nothing to download
yet when I log into gmail there are unread emails which have just arrived!!!
