            Bug ID: 429669
           Summary: Pop-up Error Message Box Flood
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.15.1
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

SUMMARY

The error dialog box keeps popping up after user select an operation

OBSERVED RESULT

I woke up found my computer flooded with "Server Authentication" error, because
one of the imap server uses a wrong cert. 

I closed all the pop-up dialog box (tons of them), but it keeps popping up
every 3 seconds. I can barely operate my PC. Quit KMail does not makes it go
away. The best I can do is to leave it there, but it still pops up several
times per hour. 

For the server cert error, I cannot fix it on my side and do not want to trust
an unknown cert. I would like to keep my account offline until a retry is
manually made some time later. 

EXPECTED RESULT

When displaying the server failure message, if the user choose "cancel", set
the account to offline, do not prompt the same error again and again.
