Bug 50334 – Kmail's sockets are still active after kmail shutdown

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM

[Description Julien TIERNY 2004-05-07 03:21:18 UTC]

When I shut down Kmail, my emails keep on beeing downloaded from the SMTP server (which is quite boring when I want to consult my emails when I travel).
After a shutdown, I systematically have to kill all kmail related processes so that my incoming emails stay on the server.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Shutdown of kmail
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
My emails are still downloaded from the server. 

Expected Results:  
Leave the related socket connections and stop downloading the incoming mails. 

after kmail's shutdown: 
"ps -ef | grep kmail 
julien    2297  2148  0 12:08 ?        00:00:00 kdeinit: kio_pop3 
pop3 /tmp/ksocket-julien/klauncherPq7oGa.slave-socket /tmp/ksocket-julien/kmail17Jxbc.slave-socket

smtp /tmp/ksocket-julien/klauncherPq7oGa.slave-socket /tmp/ksocket-julien/kmailwDaxha.slave-socket 
" 
 
I have to "kill -2" all those processes to avoid my box to download my emails 
when I'm gone.
