I have a situation appearing periodically where kmail checks my pop server and for whatever reason cannot contact it.
It then throws up requesters telling me it cannot reach the mail server, and stops checking until I click away the requester.
This behavior is highly undesirable. What I want to see is what used to happen (sigh!...for the good old days when this stuff just worked...). It would fail to contact the server, then would try again later.
Now, I do believe that akonadi is actually what is contacting the server, not kmail. But I am not certain of this. And I don't know how to change the behavior, or even if I can change the behavior.
Does anyone here know how to change that behavior? Perhaps there is a setting someplace that I have not found. If the behavior can't be changed, will evolution or any other client behave the way I want it to?
