[opensuse] kmail2 crash after google calendar, now not synchronizing imap account
I originally tried sending this from kmail, and as I have since learned, for some reason now sending from kmail doesn't work from my gmail to this list. It says that the email is sent, but a search of the archives doesn't show it ever was received. So I am sending this now again from thunderbird. _______________ Howdy, Using openSUSE 12.1 and KDE 4.7.4 and Kmail 4.7.4. The other day I tried to load the google calendar connection on akonadi. I tried to add a new calendar resource of the type "ical" and provided the location as the URL provided by google calendar. As soon as I did this, I lost my desktop, system tray, taskbar, and anything else associated with X except for a few things. The way this happened is my regular windows that I already had open I could alt-tab between, but my desktop background was black, the kicker and the entire lower bar where the system tray and taskbar reside were not there. Right clicking on the desktop would not give any menus. I was able to do alt-f2 and run an application that way. I tried to reboot and it was the same thing, except that for about 2 seconds I was able to access one of my panels long enough to start up kontact again. I re-booted a couple of times with the same effect. Finally I started up kontact again and removed the google calendar resource. Once it was removed, everything went back to normal. Except not everything, as I assumed. From that point on, Kmail2 stopped synchronizing one of my imap accounts. I have 3 imap accounts - 2 with gmail and 1 with yahoo. The imap account with gmail that I have set as my default account has not synchronized any email since last thursday. It also will not send. It says it sends the email by the indicator in the lower right corner, but it actually does not, because when I test send an email from that account to one of my other accounts, I never receive the email. I have verified that the problem is not with the server itself, for I can send and receive imap email on this account using thunderbird without any problem. My other imap accounts do not seem to have any problem synchronizing. filed as https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=294411 George -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I am using the ressource provided by the package "akonadi-googledata" to access my google contacts and calendar. At least, it did not crash my desktop. However, there might be problems with the proxy defined in the KDE system settings. For some people, including me, it helped to change the KDE proxy setting to "direct connection to the internet" (translated from German).

Did you try to reconfigure the google IMAP ressource? Perhaps your password was deleted when you deleted google ical ressource? For me akonadiconsole was a very helpful tool when I tried(sic!) to migrate from kmail1 to kmail2. You can enable the debugger (do not forget to disable it later) and see what akondi does and when akonadi fails to do something.

Please check that your Mail Dispatcher Agent is still online. Sometimes it simply goes offline (after crash/suspend to disk/whatever...) and you cannot really send any mail.
