ispdbservice.cpp in KDE Kmail before 6.2.0 allows man-in-the-middle attackers
to trigger use of an attacker-controlled mail server because cleartext HTTP is
used for a URL such as http://autoconfig.example.com or
http://example.com/.well-known/autoconfig for retrieving the configuration.
This is related to kmail-account-wizard.
