           Summary: Kmail does not handle suspend/resume cycles
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: freddie at witherden.org


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.1)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

Upon suspending a system (I've tried a Debian laptop and a Gentoo desktop
system) Kmail does not take the opportunity to close up any outstanding
connections.

When the system is later resumed Kmail becomes dead in the water -- no network
operations like checking/fetching mail work. It takes around 5 minutes for
Kmail to realize the connection has timed out.

Exiting and opening Kmail up again fixes the problem.

Kmail should either respond appropriately to suspend/resume events or be more
aggressive when it comes to reinstating lost network connections.
