[Bug 490729] [NEW] KMail keeps checking disabled account in an endless loop until I kill kontact from a console

[Daniel Smedegaard Buus]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdepim

1) Kubuntu Karmic:
Description:    Ubuntu 9.10
Release:        9.10

2) kontact:
  Installed: 4:4.3.2-0ubuntu6
  Candidate: 4:4.3.2-0ubuntu6
  Version table:
 *** 4:4.3.2-0ubuntu6 0
        500 http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de karmic/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) When disabling email checks on an account, I would expect not to have
checks happen on that account.

4) I have a DIAMP account at GMail which I've currently disabled (both
e-mail check options unchecked in settings) as the bandwidth limit has
been exceeded.

However, KMail still tries to check this account for new mail ("Checking
account DIMAP danielbuus at gmail.com for new mail" in the status bar),
which fails, then it prompts for credentials, which won't help, which
reprompts, which... You get the picture ;)

I'm unable to stop this behavior in any other way than kill it from a
console as the prompts just reappear every time I cancel them.
