Karmic 32
KDE 4.3.00 Rc3
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!

Steven
