Screenshot of window with just local folders

SUMMARY

I just installed Ubuntu 24.04 and opened KMail, tried to set up my Fastmail
IMAP account.
After several attempts, I was able to add an account. I confirmed everything
was set up right (username, password, hostnames, port numbers, etc).
But after closing and reopening kmail, there is only local folders. I have no
way of seeing the remote mail. I have looked at every option and I cannot find
a way to actually see the mail from the account I set up.

(There are a ton of window freezes, but that's not what this bug is about)


STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Start KMail on fresh machine install
2. Go through account setup process
3. Deal with random freezes and the wizard trying to do a bunch of stuff I
don't want
4. Finally get past the setup process
5. Close KMail and reopen
6. Go through account settings to confirm account is set up right
7. Close KMail and reopen again
8. Still only local folders
9. Click Check Mail->IMAP Account 1. Nothing happens...
10. Close and reopen
11. Still only local folders....??

OBSERVED RESULT

No IMAP mail folders at all

EXPECTED RESULT

Seeing the IMAP folders, or something other than local mail?
