            Bug ID: 314146
           Summary: saving attachments freezes / never times out when last
                    location no longer exists
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.9.5
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: folders
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

I use samba and nfs mounts. When doing a "save as" to those locations when
they're mounted works fine. However, if they become unmounted and/or go away
for some other reason kmail / kontact doesn't notice and the "save as" dialog
for attachments just spins and locks up kontact. It never times out and/or does
a check to see if the location is still there first.

I tried deleting the "saveAttachment" field from kontactrc, but that doesn't
seem to reset the location.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
have a samba / nfs mount. save an email attachment to them. unmount and try and
save another attachment.
Actual Results:  
kontact freeses / spins and becomes unresponsive. terminate is required.

Expected Results:  
file check to see if the location exists and if not, bounce back to the users
home directory or other default

provide a way to manually reset the location.
