           Summary: Reconnecting KMail needs to go offline first
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.7
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: maarten.bezemer at gmail.com


Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.4) 
OS:                Linux

When the connection to a (IMAP) server is lost and a message needs to be
retrieved, a warning is shown telling: 'Cannot fetch item in offline
mode'. If/when the server is available (again), KMail needs to reconnect
to that server.

But, in the File menu the 'Work Online' item is not available. First
'Work Offline' needs to be clicked before 'Work Online' can be clicked.

It would be expected that the 'Work Offline' item is automatically
replaced with the 'Work Online' item when the connection with the server
is lost.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Somehow lose the connection to a IMAP server

Actual Results:  
'Work offline' is shown in File menu

Expected Results:  
'Work online' is expected in the File menu, as the connection is lost, so it is
basically working offline already.
