            Bug ID: 317628
           Summary: Had created a POP3 mail account, but deleted it to try
                    & create an alternative email account
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: grave
          Priority: NOR
         Component: config dialog
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: dean_em at optusnet.com.au

I have 2 ISP accounts & I created a mail profile for the wrong one. I then
deleted the 1st POP account (which is still in Kmail) & tried to create a new
POP3 account. Wouldn't work, so I tried the IMAP version. I deleted some files
when "deleting" the 1st Account. I now get asked for my KDE Wallet....which I
have tried many times....indeed, I can't ever recall "setting up" a KDE Wallet.
I am on "trainer wheels", this being my 1st foray into Linux (Linux Mint)...so
it is a little owerwhelming for me at this "starting point"!!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Created POP3 account....then deleted it & 3 files/folders in that process
2.Tried to create a new POP3 Account....asks for KDE Wallet password?? I have
no idea what it is
3.Then tried to setup mail account as IMAP, but keeps asking for KDE wallet
password
Actual Results:  
I'm now in a position where my "original" POP3 account details are in Kmail,
and an IMAP folder & subfolders exist, but will not retrieve email.

Expected Results:  
I had imagined, like "Outlook", that I could either "modify/create & delete" an
existing POP3 account

Kmail seems "broken" & unable to access email either the POP3 or IMAP accounts

I did, prior to creating the 1st POP3 account, always get a "warning" :
Personal Contacts : Directory home/deane/.local/share/contacts/      does not
exist?
