Unfortunately, no.

However, I have Network Manager installed but do not use it for wired networks.
I'm manually using dhclient instead. Maybe this does not properly work?

I've never tried without network manager being installed.

BTW, a workaround to get kMail going (most of the times, though) is to perform
the dhclient comment twice:

$ dhclient -v eth0 ; killall dhclient ; ifconfig eth0 down ; dhclient -v eth0

This will often do the job for me.
