I fixed it. It was the connectivity check of NetworkManager - see this old
entry:
https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/uulpcv/i_get_limited_connectivity_even_though_my/

In /usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity.conf I have:
----
[connectivity]
uri=http://ping.manjaro.org/check_network_status.txt
----

but it seems not to be responding, therefore NetWorkmanager thinks I have
“limited connectivity” and akonadi (can’t figure out why) stays offline.

I solved by creating a NetworkManager config file that disables that check:

/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/disable-connectivity-check.conf:
----
[connectivity]
enabled=false
----

and then restarted NetworkManager. Now IMAP agents do stay online.

So, the reason was that the "ping URL" was unresponsive, but honestly I could
not relate any role of NetworkManager with this...
