           Summary: Unable to configure new IMAP account (clicking
                    "Modify..." does nothing
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.7
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: config dialog
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: jgorkos at gmail.com


Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

All of my kmail IMAP accounts stopped working, so in a fit of frustration, I
deleted all configuration files and akonadi databases (~/.config/akonadi, all
kmail2rc and kmail2 and akonadi* files under ~/.kde).

Starting from scratch, I start kmail, get a prompt to create an account and
cancel out of that because my IMAP provider cannot be autoconfigured.  I then
select Settings->Configure Kmail, Accounts, and Add... a new IMAP account.  The
account is created, but I am unable to "Modify..." it.  Clicking on modify does
absolutely nothing, save for this message in the console window:
Known subscriber "akonadi_imap_resource_0" subscribes again

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
rm -Rf ~/.config/akonadi/
rm -Rf .kde/share/config/akonadi*
rm -Rf .kde/share/config/kmail2rc

Start kmail from command line, click "Cancel" on Account Assistant
Click Settings->Configure Kmail, go to Accounts tab, receiving, and Add.. an
Imap account.


Actual Results:  
After "adding" an account, a new "IMAP Account 1" entry appears in the account
list, with the notation "No server configured yet."  Clicking Modify..., or
double clicking on the entry itself, yields no result.

Expected Results:  
I expect to be able to manually configure my account and set up my server,
username and password, security settings, etc.


Stock Ubuntu packages from Oneiric (11.10).
