--- Comment #2 from stakanov.s at libero.it ---
When your provider has a "grace period" that allows to do other actions once
authenticated, then in this window, if you do other action that otherwise would
request a new authentication. This is the very same principle as with openSUSE
sudo. If you perform two action fast, it does not ask you the password within
the grace period. 
When your MTA send the password in automatic the server(!) is answering you:
you are already authenticated. So the new authentication is not necessary and
logically "fails". The error here is on how your mail provider did recently set
the smtp authentications. You should investigate with the support of your mail
supplier. 
I doubt this is an error of Kmail. If ever, the others MTAs that do not pop up
the error will have a log file. Look in their log file, I am quite sure you
will find the very same error there.
