Bug 116608 – KMail unable to handle IMAP-Mailboxes

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description Benjamin Judas 2005-12-24 06:34:45 UTC]

REPORT:
=======

Okay folks, here's another strange one. Imagine Following scenario:

I have a central mailserver in my home-LAN. 

* I can connect to the IMAP-folders with KMail and Evolution from a machine called 'Antares'. 
* I can connect to the IMAP-folders with Evolution from my laptop (Betelgeuse).
* I can NOT connect to the IMAP-folders with KMail from my laptop (Betelgeuse).

Kmail only whines about "Process imap cannot be started".


What I tried now is: recompile kdenetwork (kde-base/kdenetwork-3.4.3) and it's 1st-level dependencies (depending on my USE-Settings: libxslt, libxml2, qca-tls, IO-Socket-SSL), check the server logs (nothing in there, not even a connection attempt).

Is this still a problem with KDE 3.5.2?

Please update to the latest split kdepim ebuilds and report back, if you still have the problem.
