            Bug ID: 502361
           Summary: Cannot give a custom name to POP3 accounts
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 6.3.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: david.decos at ehu.eus
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

When I try to create a custom POP3 account, the settings window starts naming
it as "POP3 account". When I change that to a custom name of my choice, then
finish setting everything up and press OK, the account is created with the name
"POP3 account".

Moreover, I can't rename the account later, or any of the other POP3 accounts
that I already have. I can rename other types of accounts (such as IMAP)
without a problem.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new POP3 account in KMail, and try to use a custom name for it.
2. Alternatively, if you have any POP3 accounts already set up, try to rename
them.

OBSERVED RESULT
You can't use custom names for the new accounts, or rename them later.

EXPECTED RESULT
You should be able to use custom names, as before.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20250329
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0
Qt Version: 6.8.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I'm using KMail 6.3.3, but the regression might have been introduced earlier,
since I hadn't tried to set up or rename a POP3 account in quite some time.
