Hi Laurent,
No, you are fine, I have to admit that it was my error.  When I first
encountered the problem with the "dead" KMail window, I had not noticed that
the error message about the surplus trailing angled bracket was hidden behind
another window on my desktop. As long as the user does not close the error
message, the KMail window remains unresponsive.

After I acknowledged this error message, the greyed-out KMail window responds
again to a "close this window"  command. This is the expected behavior.
When I thought I recreated the problem, I must have had my blinders on and got
the sequence of events mixed up with the first incident.

I'll tag this problem as "Resolved" since there is no tag "user error".

PS: Maybe it is a good idea to display error messages on top of all other
windows on the desktop, as well as KMail log-in requests or password
confirmations when the user sends an email. I don't know if this is possible
but it would improve handling.  If they are not hidden, the user cannot miss
them.
