           Summary: Kontact doesn't properly resolve new ip (domain on
                    dynamic ip)
           Product: kontact
           Version: 4.3
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: bugs.kde.org at sjau.ch


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.4)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I have several disconnected IMAP accounts and one of them belongs to a domain
on a dynamic ip address. So once or twice every day that ip address changes.

While the system otherwise (ping domain.com) does resolv pretty quickly to the
new ip address, Kontact just won't. It has somewhat stored the old ip which is
no longer working (I think).

Anyway, I just keep getting a popup error telling me:

"Could not connect to host domain.com: Socket operation timed out."

This appears even after ping can resolv domain.com to the new ip and when I can
login through ssh there or browse the website.

I need to restart Kontact before it will properly work again.
