... Even when the connection is back (and Kmail can download mail), output email still stays in the output box.

Have you tried double-clicking on the message in your outbox to open it and then clicking 'Send' again? Also, don't confuse a legitimate server busy problem with an error at your end. Your KMail settings don't normally change on their own, so you should expect it to work the same way every time you run it. What happens if you just forget about the problem for a couple of hours? Does it clear itself up (or have you not tried this?)

I also noticed several kio_smtp processes running. The only solution I have found is to reboot.

I used to have that exact same problem in 9.2 and KDE 3.3? I think? Never did figure out why but I got around it by downloading my mail first and then sending out mail. Problem went away after I upgraded KDE. I missed the first part of this thread so I don't know what version or KDE you are running. Bob S
