            Bug ID: 385020
           Summary: KMail2 does not wait for unlocking of KWallet
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.5.2
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: schelm at porta-it.de
  Target Milestone: ---

The used system is an updated openSUSE Leap 42.3 with all the common KDE
applications, no additional modifications. I have 4 mail accounts configured,
the passwords are stored on the computer.
The KWallet is secured via GPG.

After the startup of the computer the auto login of Plasma 5 is triggered.
KMail triggers KWallet and KWallet asks for the password. The password is
rather long and it takes a moment to type it.

But after too few seconds four password prompts for the mail accounts appear on
the screen. I don't know the passwords for my mail accounts, I use KWallet for
that...
When I enter my password for KWallet, I can close the other password prompts.
Now I can open KMail. Here I have to "start akonadi" before I can use KMail and
then all my mail transports are broken (and red in the GUI). I click on "Check
mail" and the mail accounts are online again.

This is what I would expect:
- KMail waits for the unlocked KWallet.
- Maybe it reports the mail transports broken after a while. But I do not want
to see all these password prompts now, the KWallet password prompt is still
open and it never failed in that moment... After unlocking the wallet, KMail
should try to read the password again and it should restart the mail transports
if possible.
