I think this is caused by *any* delay in fetching mail, not just
network-related delays.  I only see the dialog once: shortly after log-in,
before I have typed my KWallet password.  Kontact/KMail is not running, but the
Akonadi email stuff is (that's what causes the KWallet password dialog to
appear).

On a somewhat related note, the error message is awfully vague.  It doesn't say
what tried to do the fetching or what the backend is.  In my case, it appeared
before I had "done anything", which means I had no real context in which to
interpret the error message.

It's the error message equivalent of the dreaded "it doesn't work" bug report.
