           Summary: Kmail IMAP hangs when connection is lost and
                    re-estabished
           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: m.schaefer at hm.edu


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I'm using Kmail with IMAP(Google Mail) on my laptop connected by mobile
broadband device.

When I'm traveling by train with an established connection to the Internet
sometimes my connection falls down because of the network coverage. I have
Kmail(Kontact) started all the time and IMAP works while connection is up. When
connection is lost I reconnect after a few minutes and Internet works as
before.

But now when I try to do something with my IMAP account in Kmail it hangs. The
progress bar (right lower corner) shows 80 to 90 percent but dose not increase.
After some time there appears a "could not connect" message.

Only solution is to exit Kmail and start it again. Then everything is working
as before.
