           Summary: Akonadi error messages e.g. when access to POP3 server
                    fails is intrusive on the desktop
           Product: Akonadi
           Version: 4.7
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: malte.gell at gmx.de


Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

If there is a problem when accessing a POP3 server, Akonadi shows a big error
message on the screen. In my mind this causes some clutter on the desktop and
you have to grab the mouse every time and click the message away. This can be
annoying if a POP3 server like Yahoo often has trouble. It would be nicer if
Akonadi messages appeared in the KDE system tray as a KDE system notification.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
Start KMail, fetch email from pop3 and when your pop3 server has trouble,
Akonadi shows an error message on the desktop.


Expected Results:  
It would be nice if Akonadi showed error messages in the KDE system tray as a
KDE system notification. This is cleaner, less intrusive and causes less
clutter on the desktop.
