Linux 2.6.31-5
Kmail 1.12.0
Recently Kmail would not send emails. I verified the configuration and found
that in the Sending>Advance tab, the password field was empty. It usually has
8 dots in it. I typed in my password and clicked OK. The Apply button did
not activate, so I closed the Configuration box.
When I checked the email, it had sent. I confirmed by seeing that it was in
the sent emails. Then I tried and send an additional email and it also sent
properly.
As a matter of confirmation I reopened the Kmail configuration file and checked
the Sending>Advanced tab, to see if the password field contained the missing
dots. The dots were still missing, but emails are sending, so I consider the
problem resolved. I am not sure the developers would deem it solved, because
of the missing dots. It seems a trivial matter, but I don't know the
implications of such things and thought I should ask the experts before
forgetting the matter and moving on. Thanks!
